Pryce or Eastmond??

Just wondering who you guys think is more important to the team and more dangerous.

Pryce is currently more dangerous. There is no surprise that when he is in gear, so are Saints. He can be devastating, but he can also do a good job of playing hide and seek.

Eastmond has the potential to be better. He is expected to step up as an organiser, yet every time he sees half a gap, you know he has more than a good chance of penetrating it and something happening.

A lot of this is down to potential and achievement. IF things fire right next season, Pryce and Arnold will be an electrifying combination. If is goes wrong, I expect more boos from the morons.

Definitely Pryce, when he is firing, and by quite a distance. I wouldn't want to lose him from our team. Eastmond has some way to go yet IMO.

Pryce - he has a criminal record afterall

Pryce.

Pryce, but he is showing little invention from stand off.

Kyle will eclipse him as the 'go to guy' if he does'nt start offering more tricks soon. Has no where near the rugby brain Tomy Martyn had, but has more athleticism and a higher work rate than the aforementioned.

Pryce is currently much more important.

Kyle has the potential to be every bit as much, if not more, but needs time in the side to learn. I think one problem he currently has is that he is used to being able to change games at will in the reserve grade and currently tries to do too much himself (semi final was a good example of this). With a bit more top level experience he'll learn to pick and choose his running plays a little more wisely and will be a much more complete player.

Funny that, nice one...

If pryce is on form he is one of the best attacking players in the world so I'd go for pryce at the mo.

On the other hand Kyle only needs half a gap and he's gone. Kyle also a good goal kicker.

I do have my doubts if pryce and Kyle can play as our halfbacks as none of them are out and out ball players who can direct us round the pitch.

IMO longy and eastmond should be our halfback for rest of the season.

Looking at the whole body of work you'd have to say Pryce over Eastmond. But judging from recent performances it's not so clear cut.

Pryce has suffered from the same malaise that is infecting the rest of the team and his attacking edge has been blunted. But Eastmond, perhaps because he sees the chance to impress and beef up his leverage in contract talks, seem just as sharp as ever.

So of the two right now; Eastmond for me.

on current form eastmond is looking better but if you look at big picture pryce is massive in attack for us.

I'd agree. We'd probably have lost another half dozen games had it not been for Pryce when he stood up and took charge. Pity he stopped doing that!

strange thing is that pryce is not playing even close to his best but IMO has still been 1 of our better players in this rough patch.

Pryce makes good yards and does his tackling. Pryce, Kyle and roby look like only players that can make a break.

IMO Kyle, longy and pryce all need to play in starting 13 in order to win at old Trafford.

Depends what you mean by ' currently'. He has been poor of late, standing and passing and little else.

You must be joking, there are many miles better attacking players in the NRL

that's why I wrote ONE of the best in the world.

Well, this is true.

I used to take this view, but I'm not sure it's true.

Some of the games where Pryce has been accused of "hiding" on here he has put in massive defensive stints, akin to Wilkin.

Admittedly he sometimes doesn't impress as much as we know he can with ball in hand, but he doesn't hide.

I agree. Pryce gets through a lot of tackles. He still looks the player most likely to make a break.

tbh I think when saints are in top gear pryce brings alot to the party. When they fail to get on top and dominate you don't notice him. Kyle seems more of a live wire who can create something against the grain whatever the conditions.

To be fair to our halfbacks it's pretty hard to create anything when our pack comes off 2nd best most weeks.

If any team kicks deep we struggle to get out of our half.

If I'm being honest it's the worst pack saints have had since super league started and will be worse off next year when gilmour goes.

Pryce is one of the most dangerous players in the league 10 to 15 meters out, 2 or 3 passes wide of the ruck!! When saints have plenty of ball in the oposition 20 pryce can be a match winner!! If saints arnt bullying teams pryce is ineffective and goes missing big time!! pryce for mine looks lost without an experienced 7

That's why I would play longy and eastmond at halfbacks and pryce at loose or even centre.

I have my doubts over if pryce and eastmond at halfback will work next year.

I have my doubts too. I think they are too similar.
