The only thing he's said that could wind people up, is that RU is a bigger sport than RL........IT IS, live with it.
As long as he puts the effort in for Stains' fans, and their club (which he says he will), then so what. People have gone to RU before, and I'm sure it will happen again, and vice versa for unionites coming to our game.
I bet there weren't many people stood on the Fletch in the last 40 years, saying that Bevan (J), Bateman, Ellis, Phillips, Davies were all moneygrabbing mercenaries, and the Wire don't want them.
Eastmond is a sportsman, who is fairly obviously going to take a bigger paypacket, than what he's currently receiving. Who on here, wouldn't do the same, in an everyday working situation?.......come on, I'm waiting.
Ahhh, a lot of people's principals change when money is involved, don't they.'"
Did't we all think it was about money then it came out that Saints were offering around the same wages (sure i read that somewhere) ?
So then it's not about the big pay day it's about Eastmond wanting to play in Union and getting the adulation that his ego needs.
The guy comes across as a bit of a big time charlie, good luck to him.
