" Eastmonds mind is elsewhere".

he may as well fook off to RU if that is going to be his attitude for the rest of the season.

stealing a living from Saints. they deserve more than that from him

def having a poor game tonight. Dunno if it has anything to do with the RU move. Some players just have bad games.

Thats what i've said - he knows he's leaving and his performance so far has been mor ea case fo going through the motions - if people dont want to play our sport we should throw them to the rah-rah's immediately !!

Saints fans need not worry. They have that up and coming number 7 coming through the ranks. James Graham i think his name is.......

Very elusive runner of the ball, never seemed to get tackled all night.

Needs to stop trying to get the easy yards does Graham and put his head down and start running the ball like he is capable.

Eastmond should just go now. If not he needs dropping.

James Graham cost us the game tonight.

Add to that Eastmond and Gardner....both were gash.

Easier to name the ones who played well I'm afraid. Wilkin, Roby and to a lesser extent Wellens did nothing wrong, the rest.......

It is easy for me to say this because you have lost, but Graham is in no way Skipper material.

He has started to look for the easy route more often than not and seems to believe that the opposition will fall for his last minute pass, even though he has started trying it more often than not. It was a neat little trick 2 years ago but it is blatantly obvious to anyone what will happen.

He really went into hiding tonight and seemed more than happy to let others run the ball out of Saints half.

He might have been injured mind you, he was in a bit of a state after than huge hit from Carvell.

HE has made his name as a pure athlete that will just keep picking the ball up time and time again, relentlessly.

He needs to get back to doing that because he just looks so jaded atm

Totally agree he is either suffering from burnout or his mind his elsewhere (NRL?). I think he tries to do too much, as you suggest tries to be a prop, captain and half back. Someone needs to reign him in or drop him for a few matches.

James Graham needs to stop whinging at the ref and realise that when he's not getting wound up by other, more experienced props, he's in the top two or three in the country.

Eastmond is clearly not good enough for super league.

Roby, Wellens, Flannery and Clough were good for Saints tonight.

get lomax in the halves! The more games he plays at 6 or 7 the better he will become! Was awesome for orrell and saints reserves at half back!

Gaskell looks like a talent also. Looked a little timid tonight but early days for the lad.

Thats a big statement. Eastwood at his best has ripped up defences!

When no one knew that he didn't like getting hit in the first 5 minutes of a game. What exactly are his amazing attributes? Pace.....oh. That's it.

But he is currently not anywhere near his best.

Eastwood?

100% agree mate. Give jonny 3 or 4 weeks at standoff and they will never look back. But how long will this take? Last 2/3 weeks Pryce and Wheeler have been injured, the chance to give Lomax a break has been there on a plate. But they have stuck in Gaskell who is no doubt promising but he is from Lomax's age group and has never been anywhere near the same class that Jonny is. FOR GOD SAKES SIMMONS PLAY HIM AT SIX!!! It is winding me up and saints aren't even my team!!

Yeah you only had to watch his reaction when Saint's scored or should that be his none reaction.
The team were celebrating and he just walked away from what I could see.

Eastmond and Graham have become like spoiled brats. It could be seen last night 2 or 3 times when Eastmond through a crap pass and caused a knock on he then preferred to go mental at the player who dropped the ball.
He needs slapping down a bit.

Sorry i read that as Eastmond last night when i was sleepy. Ignore it.

Lots of ANZACS in SL clubs do the same but there not given the same stick

Sorry mate - my post was aimed at the original poster, who I think meant Eastmond but put Eastwood....stupid quoting system!

Sack Eastmond off

Lomax at Scrum half
Wilkin at Stand off

I think it's simpler than that. He thinks he's better than he is.

The sooner he stops believing his own hype, the sooner he will start being a good player again.

That's just another way of saying what I had written.

He tries to do much (thinks he is better than he is at distribution etc.), better to do what he got his name for (running the ball in hard and not moaning at everything!)

He needs to be dropped for a few weeks IMO.
