Kyle Eastmond has stated he will 100% make his mind up this week ''deffo''.Should he go or stay.In my opinion ,let him go,he cant be bigger than the club.

He hasn't proved anything yet apart from being inconsistent, inexperienced and prone to little niggling injuries and him so young. I'm surprised RU are even looking at him.

Why are you so surprised? Look at the other lemons they signed for big money. Andy Farrell, Iestyn Harris and Henry Paul just to name three

Go and the sooner the better, from the way he played he doesn't want to play for Saints and at the least little niggle he is off the pitch.

Think both of those players had proved themselves to be exceptional rugby league players,whereas Eastmond for all of his promise, has had just one full injury hit season . And a pretty indifferent one as well.

Let the proper rugger boys take him if they want.

James Graham would be a much greater loss than Eastmond IMO.

He should have made his mind up before the new season not one week in. Anyway if he`s not sure he wants to play at saints he should`nt be picked.We did o.k without him last year

Word has it the Eastmond is off to Bath Twitter is alive with posts about him one from A Sports Reporter and Bath RFU site full of posts on same topic. Sale signing relates to an international RFU player again according to Twitter. If you ask me Eastmond aint proved himself in anyway as an organiser like Longy Head To Big for his Boots plus he aint nothing more than a biscuit for me let him go get a few bob while we can.

I agree, but in my opinion we should never have let longy go, having said that I am sure that our players will find the right one to do the job. Kyle Eastmond is not that one.

He is making his mind up and will announce it next week I believe.
He probably will go to Bath which is a shame but he needs to decide where he wants to be sooner rather than later.
Chris Ashton having a momentous game last week may have a bearing on his decision.
Much as it pains me to say it, Long is past his best now and we don't need him back.
Matty Smith though would be a different proposition!
We went to Salford last night and were very impressed with the team without Wheeler, Wello and Jammer.
Lomax is Wello's perfect replacement when he retires.
LMS, TP and the ever present Roby along with Ade Gardner had a superb game.

I agree cm matty smith would be good. Watched Longy with the black and whites have to agree with you on that also. There is no doubt the young lads did a good job but I still feel that once our senior players return the saints will be a lot stronger and have more depth.

KYLE EASTMOND, does not want to play for the saints that was painfully obvious by the state of his kit. he came on without a spec on it and went off in the same condition, tell me what rugby player who has had any involvement in the game can boast a clean kit going off the pitch. Get rid of him and maybe we can get a half back who does want to play. The jury is out on the new coach there was no attacking flair to the saints at all, and worst of all after ten years they let Warrington win.

A warington win was going to happen sooner or later.What is worrying is against wigan and warrington eastmond was poor against salford he was very good,I think this indifferent form is down to is mindset,he should be dropped to the bench until his future is sorted one way or the other.It will probably bring him down a peg or two as well,arrogance is ok if you are going to back it up,He has`nt so far this year Iknow he has been out for a while and it is early doors,I just feel he neds to make his mind up what he wants(or his agent does)

Eastmond should go now. Word is he is announcing his departure tomorrow and James Graham signing a new 4 year contract.
Get Rangi Chase over here and I would be very happy
