And if they sign him, then the rest of Super League can look forward to seeing Warrington receive a hefty points deduction!

Surely another player allegedly being courted by Tony Smith in his position as international coach makes his position untenable?



He is a slimy little worm.

If true, you'd think so.

I'd guess so, I can't see Warrington going with them both, too inexperienced. Smacks of lazy journalism to me, in fact he's probably got it from these boards a few weeks ago and just left it long enough for the topic to drop off the first page.

I'm sure I read in one of the rugby papers last week that eastmond would be signing 4yr deal after 4 nations.



I read it somewhere anyway.

with who though?????

Souths

Pilks Recs

Ah the REAL St. Helens team.

Spot on, for this reason is why an International coach should have no links to any domestic teams in the UK or overseas, if wire are interested in Eastmond Smith is in a great position in which to tap him up.

I would suggest that Mick Potter is in a far far better position to 'Tap up' Kyle Eastmond.

I got the papers and have not seen this anywhere.



Last thing I heard was our chairman saying that Kyle had rejected the last offer and he was going to have to see how things panned out next season on the grounds that Kyle has not proven himself yet blah blah blah etc.



This is muddled thinking IMO. Every day the cost of keeping him goes up. every decent England performance his value increases.

I know we don't have any money but I would like to make these points:



1. Whats happened to the money we are saving not paying SL £150K p.a. anymore



2. Why the feck do we let our No.1 SH go when we haven't secured the services of our No.2 SH



3. Why can't we see potential and be prepared to pay for it in advance of greatness being achieved when everyone will be after that player. Unfortunately the nature of sport is that you have to make these judgements which have an element of uncertainty in them. If we don't know what he is capable of who does?
