Royce has said he will go with a hooker, 2 forwards and a reserve back on the bench each and every week. So why do people continually ignore this when selecting the side? Anyhow it leaves Eastmond and Makinson hopefully Royce goes with the latter.

He's a good option anywhere bar the front and back row. He has pace and elusiveness that we lack. If Saints are going to pay him to the end of the season they should play him IMO. I think we should see him play away games for a while, to give him chance to appease some of the hillbillies.

If his attitude isn't right it doesn't matter whether we're paying him until his funeral.

Yep

Its really simple,he said he was going to give 100% and he didnt so he shouldnt be allowed anywere near the 1st team again,his attitude stinks,he has let down not just himself but his team mates and the supporters.

Pace and elusiveness? That was 12 months ago. There is nothing in Eastmonds performances this season that has any kind of pace or elusiveness. If Eastmond decides to play as we all know he can, then i'll agree with you that he should be included in the first team, but so far he has shown nothing but indifference and a definite lack of interest in each performance i've seen - and that includes last weeks U20's game.
