If I was Gaskell or Gardner tonight I would have gone windmilling at the gobby little lover. It was a disgraceful way to treat your team mates after a mistake. I remember Brough doing it to Aaron Murphy at wakey just before he left.
You cannot do that as part of a team. From a Saints point of view he needs to go to enable you to get a bit of cohesion back.

remember being impressed that Gardner didn't throw the ball at Eastmond; Longy style( Hull CC)

Robinson had far more talent than Eastmond and had already 'made it' in RL. Eastmond has had one good half season followed by a series of injuries. Robinson's attitude was also very good, he was prepared to listen and learn. Eastmond's attitude is poor. I'm watching the game now and I've just watched his pass to Gaskell. Poor pass from Eastmond behind the player who can't control it. Eastmond just stands and watches, then blames Gaskell.

Robinson didn't have more talent than Eastmond. Before Robinson went to Union he couldn't kick a ball and was just a pacy and elusive runner. Playing Union improved his game no end.

Eastmond has it all. He can kick, short and long. He can kick goals. He has pace and a running style very similar to Robinson's. He was brilliant at centre for Saints when Long was here, defensively solid and so dangerous in attack. He will go down well in Union I feel if he can stay away from the injuries, which is his only downfall. The mental side of things is hardly a problem unique to Kyle either. Many young players have had similar issues, Sean Long was one. Jason Robinson himself had major trouble in his teen years at Wigan with the demon booze and getting into trouble. He himself credits Inga Tuigamala with saving not only his career but probably his life through helping him find god and take a step back. Eastmond is just a young kid who knows he is talented and who has probably had people bigging him up all his career. His head will have been filled with wonderful things by Union and with the figures likely to be involved it's no wonder he's off. You have to factor in he's working under a coach who knew he was likely to be leaving the club and so by all accounts barely involved him in training. I think Leon Pryce's injury is the only reason Eastmond has been playing this season for Saints.

apparently Bath are looking at the wing or full back of which he is neither IMHO

but who would have him if there is no room for his salary in the League salary cap

Edited for accuracy.
No offense intended.

If he wants to go then Saints need to let him asap.No good having a player,whos mind is not on the job. He will soon come crawling back,with his tail between his legs.When it all goes pear shaped.I can't see where he will play in the 15 man code.

Is Royce the man to do rebuilding job.
Not a quip a genuine question.

IF Graham and Kyle leave as expected, then for the first time in many years there are more players in my team I would want than there are in your team. In fact the only player's in your team that I would really really want at the Wire is Roby, Pryce and Puletua (that's assuming Graham and Kyle leave). Roby I would break the bank for and I think Puletua is a great forward.

Wellens/ Hodgson = Hodgson
Gardner/ Monaghan = Monaghan
Shenton / Bridge = Bridge
Wheeler ? / Atkins = Atkins
Meli / King = King
Gaskill /Briers = Briers
Pryce / Myler = Pryce
Perry / Morley = Morley
Roby / Monaghan = Monas (but I think Roby is a wonderful player and as stated earlier would break the bank for him)
Graham / Cravell = Graham
Wilkin / Westwood = Westwood
Puletua / Louis = Puletua
Fllanery / Harrison = Harrison

Bloody hell Fatbelly imagine having a Monaghan/Roby interchange.

We would dominate, in fact we would probably overtake the US and become the worlds leading superpower.
To have Roby and Monas in our team would be world beating .
Please Mr Moran any chance of a very large cheque being written.

I know this has almost no chance of happening.......but Saints have a new stadium to pay for and everything that entails. Its not just building the stadium its kitting it out with everything that it will need. Roby has just this past month signed a long term contract and Saints would be able to ask a massive (probably world record) fee for him. Saints are in the rebuilding phase and we are in the ascendancy. Roby would have a choice between helping rebuild a team with promise of Trophies to come one day, or have his cake and eat it and play in a settled team with a massive salary (Ahem one way or the other) and win trophies now.

Cunningham, Long, Graham, Eastmund, Pryce et al have all left or will probably leave and this will lessen James reasons to stay with Saints.

The following has been said a couple of times in recent seasons but in a different context, 'there has never been a better time' for Mr Moran to have a quite word with Roby's agent.

You're obviously an Eastmond fan. He can't do everything. If Friday was anything to go by, he proved that his kicking game is lacking and some of his passing leaved a lot to be desired. He's also extremely petulent and won't get far in Union with an attitude like that. Robinson had also achieved an awful lot in RL went he went, whereas Eastmond has had one good six month period, followed by a period of under-achievement and injury.

That would be nice, when Matt King goes end of year instead of replacing his salary with another antip, get in JR

Sorry remind me why wire are in the ascendancy?

your mother told us all they are.
