Just think that pryce is getting all the $hit when the whole team has played crap since potter took over.'"
I think Pryce gets unwarranted character based criticism (lazy, greedy etc.), but the reason he's taking flak is that he's filling an absolutely crucial position in the side. With a more natural stand off the rest of the players you mention might have more space and time to do their thing.

| If you had everyone fit I would go with
Lomax
Gardner
Gidley
Wheeler
Meli
Eastmond
Moore
Fozzard
Cunningham
Graham
Soliola
Wilkin
Pryce
Roby
Puletua
Fasssavalou (sp)
Hargreaves
Reasoning it would add a bit of much needed pace in the backs, and that bench is flexible enough to cover for most changes necessary during the game plus it would let you have two big forwards who could make some impact.
In the off season I would think you would need to sign a halfback to let Moore replace Cunningham and one or two centres to replace Gidley and Wheeler (if you decide to move Wheeler to stand off)

We're awash with halfbacks. Wheeler, Lomax and Eastmond are all halfbacks and we have Ellis and our new guy waiting in the wings too. That's discounting Smith on loan, of course, who is also a halfback. We don't need to sign any halfbacks! A good prop wouldn't go amiss though along with two pacey wingers and a couple of centres.

| A new prop and a copy of 'Last Tackle for Dummies' and we're sorted.

The problem we have is all of them are inexperienced.
I'm starting to think we should look at bringing Smith back to play alongside Eastmond, he's had 3 or 4 years SL experience now and has a solid kicking game. He's likely to turn into a Paul Deacon clone as his career progresses IMO, solid at best, but perhaps that's what we need at the moment.

I need to hit that bottle again. Medicinal purposes. Shock, you know.
That's a very sensible suggestion.

I'm not too sure, I don't think we'll see him in a Saints shirt again.
