With news this morning that Kyle is leaving for Bath who would you like to see as his replacement?
I heard Luke Gale mentioned on here the other day but with the money Kyle leaving gives us shouldn't we use it a bit more wisely?
If not, what about Jarrod Sammut from Crusaders

If he's staying on until the end of the season, the club will be working on a big name for next.

I'm under the impression that Thurston, Prince and Cronk are head, shoulders, knees and even toes above the other 7s in the NRL, so I would hope it'd be one of them.

Given the impending TV-deal pay hike in Australia I'd say the chances of us landing one of their A-list star scrum halves is somewhere around nil.

Gaskell it is, then.

Not to mention a lack of experienced 7's in the NRL at the moment hence a few clubs battling hard to secure a crocker Orford!

I'm not too up on the Saints reserves/U18's so some of you may disagree with me, but I feel that Eastmonds replacement will come from your own club, someone at Saints now obviously knows he's leaving and is thinking to himself "I'm ready to make his shirt mine." and he may explode on to the scene this season.

Eastmond isn't IMO such a big blow as everyone thinks for the above reason, there's always someone equally as talented and potentially better than him at the club already. Trouble is putting the faith in the lad to do it.

As long as it isn't Todd Carney (who i know is a 5/8 but we all know how these players chop and change)

It's very likely to be the next NRL halfback who disgraces himself or falls out of favour.

So we should miss out on Carney then as he was the last

Maybe we should club together and buy Thurston a particularly handsome dog for Christmas.

It's Joel Monaghans canine friend.

Remember where you heard it first.

I wish people would stop saying Sammut. His D makes Eastmond look like an enforcer.
