| After reading the saints board the other day i was just wondering if you would bid for any of there out of contract players for next year.
Graham 2011
Roby 2011
Eastmond 2011
I would like to get eastmond and get rid of ryan hoffman and amos roberts as they are luxury players and we dont really need them if you look at the current squad numbers. Which player would you bid for and how much even thou they only have a year left on there contracts.

Eastmond is not built for RL i fear. His body seems unable to take strain.
And to say that Amos and Hoffman are luxury players is nonsense. Amos on his day is one of the most dangerous players in SL

| So having seen Amos have a cracking season until injury and never seen Hoffman play for Wigan you want to get rid? And get rid of two players for Eastmond who so far seems to be pretty injury prone.

| Amos played well for 10 games in 2 years goobervision and hoffman is a waste of money when we have farrell,tuson,mossop,hansen,j tomkins,hock when he returns etc going for 2 spots and as for eastmond he is one of the best backs in england when he is fit so yeah i would swap them players for him plus getting rid of 2 overseas players and geting an english player also with eastmond and tomkins we could have the english 6,7 for the next decade

| Eastmonds too injury prone (as said already in this thread).
Graham will sign a bumper new deal with them, and will be made captain to sweeten the deal for him.
Roby is a player I like, but I see him heading to Oz tbh.

That is a massive comment to make tbh, Hoffman has a lot more experience than the majority of the players named there, plus he's only here for a season (maybe 2)

Wouldn't have Eastmond. Can have the occasional great game, but too inconsistent and too injury-prone.
Graham & Roby, possibly, but wouldn't break the bank for them.

| I think it is perhaps a tad too early to say he is injury prone. Has he just been unlucky or is he truly injury prone? If you could guarantee his fitness, then yes I would have him without hesitation. Sadly, jou cannot guarantee it, but I would probably still have a gamble and take him, but obviously the price/contract would have to reflect this. If any Saints fans are reading this, would you want him to go (obviously not to Wigan)?
As for getting shut of Hoffman (never seen play) and Amos (probably in the same bracket as Eastmond above), don't talk wet.

You can't just ignore Eastmond's injury record; at present, that blows away any notion that he's a guaranteed England 6 for the next decade. For a youngster, he's on the treatment bench with alarming regularity. Sure, he may just have been astonishingly unlucky, but quite often this sort of thing means that either his body's not up to the game or his head isn't. In any case, in the few times when Amos fired last season, he looked 20 times more deadly than I've ever seen Eastmond (though admittedly I've only seen Eastmond's TV games).
At the end of the day, I'd love to have a talent at Wigan like Eastmond, but not the way he is at present, and not at the expense of the two players you mention. Now Roby might be another matter. If Roby was available, I'd seriously hope Wigan would be enquiring.
