Id get rid just at the fact that he didn't acknowledge the fans. Just imagine tomorrow morning on Saints website Eastmond agrees Bath move, would make my day ALOT better!

i would rather play somebody out of position who is actually is interested in playin for the club, his mind is obviously elsewere.

I agree with you, our pack was battered and the wolves knocked the poo out of our pack but we spent enought time on the wolves line for eastmond to create something!

In the first half we was camped on the wolves try line for about 10/15 mins yet we still couldn't open them up.

If you couldnt see Eastmond clear lack of effort you want to get those Cherry an White specs of yours tested. The pack wernt great but a decent amateur scrum half could have managed what he dd tonight ... catch and pass

I do think his poor body language had a negative effect on the other players.

exactly - he simply didnt look interested - he trotted around pointing alot and then really didnt impose himself on the game. In my time watching saints ive seen some poor performances from halfbacks with far far less ability than Kyle but it's a long time since I've seen a less commitd player in the Red V. The lad clearly believes all his own hype, I honestly wish he'd just leave and free us up the cap room.

Do you think Eastmond will be dropped for next week?
If so who do you think his replacement would be?

Jonathon Thurston.

he shouldnt put on our shirt again

We played some shocking and very predictable rugby league,
same moves every 6 tackles..we need to learn some new tactics and need to stop the ball being offloaded....how many times does this have to happen before we stop it!!

Eastmond should be ashamed of himself for not showing his support to the club that made him what he is today.......
Eaither stay and put in 100% or foook off and fail to be the next Jason Robinson! He should never play in the V again after walking off the field like he did!

I don't blame him at all for walking off. I wouldn't walk over to a couple of thousand braindead fools who wanted to call me names either.

Some of the fans behaviour tonight was appalling. Why continue the Monaghan stuff when he's winning 24-0? It makes you look very silly. And shouting abuse at Kyle is pathetic as well. He is not from St Helens and hasn't done anything wrong. He's considering an offer for more money. If a company offered me more money I know what I would do...

Maybe not. What you can blame Eastmond for is standing 5 yards behind the play. Failing to guide the team around the park, or creating any space like a good Scrum Half should do. His attitude and lack of respect towards other players when making errors, brought about by his disinterested pass in the 1st place. His lack of respect to the fans at the end of the game. Infact his total and utter lack of interest in the game. The sum of his efforts was to shift the ball on whenever he could, push people in at 1st receiver so he didn't have to be there and occasionally throw a stupid drop off ball getting someone killed. If he wants to go to Bath, I will gladly drive him there tonight.

I would thank the company I worked for and which paid my mortgage for years before leaving with dignity and a bit of pride as a leader in any position should do wether it be in everyday life or sport...I mean what a good rolemodel for the kids growing up watching our sport.....and my daughter thought he was great!! How wrong she now feels!!

He should be bloody ashamed and you should too for even contemplating that he was not in the wrong for coming over to the fans!

Even our coach was unhappy with hes attitude does he think hes now to big for us

A lot of people use this analogy. It falls down in that.
1) you are insulting your own team's support and then not referring to them in your business anology. They don't really fit into it.
The supporters don't need to maintain a business relationship with Kyle. They have paid their money for many years to see him perform. They have a right to be ed.

2) and most important. Kyle has been with Sts since he was 13. Costing them a lot of money and he hasn't given them anything... at all. Now after the chance Sts gave him he is leaving without even a thank you to the fans.

2)

we'll miss the former Kyle, this Kyle though? No.
As Someone mentioned, he played like a robot, he had no creativity, when he broke through, he was weaving and ducking and wriggling through players, i felt he was trying to preserve himself, which in my eyes is being a coward. For me i'll always see him as a judas and a piece of scum if he leaves for union now.
If it was Jammer leaving tomorrow, i'd be disappointed, but thoroughly understand, same applied with Roby, ambitious and after achieving everything possible in this country, wants to improve, but i think Jammer will stay regardless, it's just the manner of Kyle's inevitable exit, which makes me sad.

f*cks sake lads... he isnt jesus.

He was one of your best players tonight.

He wasn't one of the best at all and many wire fans said to me at the pub after as soon as I walked in after I got back that he was awful.

I love Kyle. Really talented kid and if he leaves, he goes with my blessing on to bigger and more lucrative things. He cannot be vilified for that in this day and age.

It's not like he's doing a Connolly and moving to another club. If we got rid tomorrow as was apparently suggested on Sky Sports tonight, I hope he leaves on terms that would enable him to 'do a Lee Smith' if he doesn't find Bath to his liking. He's unquestionably the most talented player we've brought through in decades.

I'm sorry, you must have been at a different game to me. The wire fans were the ones making all the woof woof noises every time he got the ball or came near their end - all intended as a sign of affection I think. The North stand was estremely quiet from the start to the end.
Do you have directional problems with your hearing?

No I don't. The North stand was 100% silent all night. It's the yobs behind the sticks to the left in Saints shirts I was on about. At 24-0 they were giving him the kitchen sink about his canine antics, as well as ripping Kyle. Kyle could clearly be seen turning his head towards the fans in reaction to something shouted at him. That was why he didn't thank the fans, he was getting plenty of stick from an ugly, balding man near the front of the stand every time he went down that end.

Stevo?

Phil Bentham ?



There were some woof woof noises from the East stand but I was on the halfway line (well not literally) and the Wire fans in the West stand were a lot lot more abusive generally and were woof woofing at monaghan all night.

Brian, running at gaps and space that skilful halves put you in makes the game easy. Running straight at brick walls isn't quite so. Simple as that.

We were only irritated with Ashton because he posed with a Northants shirt whilst under contract with Wigan.

His importance to the team at that point was minimal, just another talented (if flawed) youngster breaking through.
