| Quote: The Chair Maker "There is a lad currently playing at Whitehaven that is on Hudds books that may turn out better than Tomkins, Eastmond, or Myler
Goes by the name Greg Mcnally.
He has started 17 games for whitehaven this year scoring 25 tries and kicking 71 goals.
He is only 19 years old
Have watched him a couple of times this year and been unimpressed.
Can you imagine Eastmond or Tomkins at that level

I'm with you on that one.
He's been o.k. but not put in the outstanding performances that Sam & Kyle have.

Remember he is a year younger than Eastmond and Tomkins.
So is bound not to be as developed.

| Quote: SaintsFan "Eastmond's defence, while not perfect, is streets ahead of what it was. I've noticed, for instance, that he seems to have stopped running out of his line. Also he is not shy of defending these days. I think he lost a bit of confidence last season when he went in wrong on a tackle and gave himself a helluva shoulder injury (surgery required). His technique has improved, his effort has improved and his results have improved. Defence can be taught. Some of the superb plays he has made, however, have pure instinct written all over them. We didn't see much of that on Friday night but we saw a lot of it against Wire. Perhaps the event got to him, I don't know.'"
well he must have been bad before then.
fair play to the lad if hes working on it, but hes far from a good defensive player,
teams pick him and run at him........they run away from sam. |

Sam has 30 missed tackles and Eastmond has 8? |

30 missed tackles suggests not. Although he is one hell of a player. |

Tomkins has also made more than 3 times as many tackles so missed is bound to go out the more attempted tackles are made. |

I'm surprised no-one's mentioned Stefan Ratchford. He's impressed me more than Myler at Salford. Definitely another candidate for a future England half-back.
Wigan lad too.
