| Problem with Eastmond is when he came on the scene he was a great individual talent with huge potential. He has never moved on from that status.
Compare that with other young players with big talent who within a couple of years of making their debuts, were driving their teams forward: Cunningham, Graham or Roby for Saints; Sinfield, Burrow or McGuire for Leeds, Tomkins and Charnley for Wigan, the Burgess brothers at Souths.
Eastmond at Saints was just a bright individual talent, he did not replace Sean Long. It doesn't seem like in union he has pushed Bath to new levels either.
Potential is overrated, he needs to get the right attitude. He was compared a lot to Jason Robinson for his speed and explosiveness but Robinson was streets ahead as a professional.

Was he always though? I'm sure I remember reading Robinson crediting Tuigamala's arrival at Wigan for not only saving his career but his life as well. (I might be exaggerating that, it was a long time ago). Wasn't the early Robinson a heavy drinker before he found the good Lord?
Eastmond was turning into a brilliant player before he left. I'd say he'd be the best player in Super League if he did come back, he really is that good. He was just a cocky young kid who had his head turned by promises of glamour, fame and fortune. It's happened before and it'll happen again.

| In a heartbeat.
If we had Kyle at 6 and didn't seriously compete, then the coach would have a lot to answer for. IMO
There's plenty of lads he knows and seems to have kept in contact with at Saints, it would be easy for him to come back and slot in and perhaps he would look at it as a way to right any bad memories of when he left.
Get him. Bring him home.

| Can't see Kyle coming back to Saints, it will be either Salford or Wire for that lad if he is to return from the Darkside.

| Everyone deserves a second chance. Neither Eastmond, nor a selection of our fans, acted in a way which you'd be proud of in hindsight. But people grow up, times move on, and hatchets get buried.
If we have the money to compete, I'd throw it into the ring.

People grow up???? the way he is acting at Bath I don't think Kyle has quite managed it just yet.

| How has he been at Bath with injuries.
If he can stay on the field any team would want him.
