difficult to argue with that given who we have available but I wouldnt be looking to offer Ade a new contract, a winger with genuine pace would be awesome .. Is there another Darren Albert out there????

Neither would I, Armstrong looks ok, as does makinson, both younger,faster options who are still improving. I can't help thinking if ade gets a new contract, the old ade will be back

No Eastmond?

Without doubt this is our strongest 17!!!

Gardener is all effort but not the finisher he was, especialy in terms of pace. He also made crucial defensive errors at Wigan. Makinson has far more potential to win a game. Wheels has shown enough to be in there.

Pryce can't be considered until he has proved match fitness [and possible attitude].

Wello
Makinson, Shenton, Meli, Foster
Wheeler, Lomax
Perry, Roby, Graham
Soliola, Flannery, Wilkin,

Puletua, LMS, Clough, Moore

Good to see. I didn't bother reading everyone else's team, I just assumed they would all drop him.

Makinson especially seems to be very quick , would be alot cheaper than Ade too I imagine.

Truth is.... If you're talking about a Saints 17 fully fit and playing on form and committed, Eastmond would be in there.

I think we take committed for granted in pretty much every player except Ea$tmond. His actions and in fact words have spoken volumes and that probably why he would not feature in many fans 'strongest 17'. Commitment is not really something that can be fixed either because you simply are or you aren't.

If your talking about our most talented 17 then yes.
