I don't think he'd say "no". I think he'd say "yes" [iif [/ithe price was big enough. (Notice I didn't say the "Price was Right" 'cos that's tenuously an idiom.)

There. I've shown you mine. Why do you think he'd say "No"?

I think Rovers is unfinished business and that strengthens the players!

Oh. OK, then

.

well i got told Hull KR were after St Helens Player kyle eastmond on loan to get him away from the saints ( as it was about to come out he was gonna bath nxt season ) after your game at warrington wolves and wonder why Hull KR was making that inquiry ( If Hull KR did ) as dobbo was fit at the time so yr coach and board was telling you all, make what you like of it

Now "King Cunningham" and Gidley are in their pipe and slippers the rest of the Saints squad are getting found out to be fairly average with the few exceptions - like most other SL teams.

No Cunningham, no talisman, no short range tries, no repeat sets, no penalties on the back of those repeat sets, no lions share of possession, no average players made to look like world beaters by playing against players who've spent all their time defending.

Saints will struggle to finish in the top-six IMO and I've got a feeling their gates could well slip to below 5k of home support by the end of the season.

May as well be.

I think they'd have to pay him off to some extent, if not then it would more than likely go to court and be protracted. Even f they did do you think Eastmond is on more than Dobbo? I'd be surprised if it wasn't around a similar amount therefore could saints realistically offer silly money..

Well you were clearly mis-informed then (hardly surprising given the bullcrap that floats around this city). That particular "rumour" eminated from an interview with Martin Sadler on Humberside a couple of weeks ago, when he was chucking out scenarios about Eastmond's short-term future. This was picked up by a few messageboard deadheads and suddenly, Eastmond is on his way down the M62.

He could hitch a ride with Longy.

Or instead of!

You know absolutely nothing, embarrasing

What you mean, so he has the Rugby League coached out of him before he starts his Union contract?

rude!

Based on what? If he gets sacked, he gets sacked. No requirement for a pay off.



St Helens can afford it and it still wouldn't count on this years salary cap.



Your probably right, but it ain't going to be a million miles away.



Now, thats just hurtful.

You seem to have a big issue with Saints, and I'm not really sure why. You said something similar last year and they made the Grand Final.

Personally I think Saints have a pretty good template for squad composition. They have quota players like Puletua and Perry, excellent British players like Shenton, Pryce, LMS and Roby, and a pipeline of homegrown talent on show tonight like Lomax, Foster, Gaskell etc, 10 homegrown out of 17. They strive to entertain, play with great intensity and look like a play-off side to me.

Do you know what I would find embarrassing? Not being able to spell embarrassing.

I'm sure i'll survive

So would I.



Those two syllable words can be a blighter.

Hung by their own petard. Always a favourite.

Hoist.



A petard was a small bomb, not unlike the squib of 'damp' fame.

Perhaps we should play grammarian donkey*...




* A catch game were each mistake saw you get a letter, until the word donkey was spelled (not spelt - that is a type of grain). A bit like killer, for those that play pool.

I wouldn't have thought a small bomb would be the tool of choice for hoisting people. Was this in the days before cherry pickers?

I think hoist has come to mean lift [iand[/i hold/suspend, but a bomb could at least do the first part. Anybody who can segue back to Eastmond from here deserves a medal.

Do you think Kyle has bombed his chances of getting back in the Saints squad this season?

I knew that, why did I write it incorrectly?

I'm on "D".
