Greg Eastwood - 2013 Discussion Thread

[Scorpio]

Just read this on nrl.com

this cant be the reason, can it?

But Eastwood said there was no room for excuses and even took the unusual step of singling out halves Josh Reynolds and Kris Keating as needing to step up their games.


“We’ve been trying our hearts out but we’ve taken some wrong options at times and the Souths game on the weekend was real tough. They were non-stop for 80,” he said. “I think our halves have to take on a bigger role to find the right pass or the right kick. I’m sure they can do that this week. But our defence has been really good. Like I said, at times taking the wrong option has cost us in the end.”

So he spoke the truth????????

well done Eastwood... i applaud...

 

[BAD INFLUENCE]

Good on you Beast. He's only telling it how it is. In the opposition 40 we don't no what to do. It's so frustrating to watch!

 

[vietorious]

Pritchard in, Williams back to his preferred side and Jackson to Lock.

Alaalotoa or Romelo to bench.

Is he the player the Gameplan was reffering to as a rumour for disruption in team harmony? Seemed normal and relaxed when interviewed.

Impossible, there is no way this comment should offend anyone, he is a senior player who is revving up his halves, who happen to be critical to the teams performances and out of form. This is a very important game so only injury would keep a player like Eastwood out.

That was toward a captain of a team, and they didn't give any ground to support it.

Yes it would handler would have punished him for his remark !!

Regarding the beast, he has been our best so its shattering to have him out, especially the day of kick off when you wake up..you are all excited for the game and hear this news. A few of our fans are questioning if its for disciplinary action, given the club spokesman who came out and, chose not to comment on why he was out.

Ela jimara what's the mail?

No idea champ. Leaving for the game now, hope they confirm it before kick-off.

 

[Bulldog Bruce]

Maybe he signed with Parra? O__o

 

[Trendsetter]

If he's been punished for those comments, that's horseshitte! He said nothing wrong at all.. If that's punishable, then what about Thurstons post match comments a few weeks ago.

 

[Stoofy]

Why was he dropped? Something seems a bit suss here as the whole team played like crap. Something is brewing!

Des in the press conference said it was personal family reasons.

 

[immortalbulldog]

Sick kid I heard. Very family orientated guy.

 

[immortalbulldog]

Greg's dad is sick. That's why he missed the game. He posted on twitter a while ago.
All the best to Greg's dad and all the Eastwod family

[Mr Beast]

Poor bloke he doesn't look to well, wish him and his family all the best.

And to the idiot whoever said he got stood down for talking about our halves. Lesson learned don't be so quick to post rumors, don't believe everything you hear.

 

[NorthernDog]

Greg is one of the 'Heart and soul' guys of our team. I was stunned when someone in another thread called him lazy. It'd be interesting to see his line break and meters gained stats. This bloke has about every skill in the game in a big instinctive package. Only thing i've not seen him do is have a pot for field goal, i think it may be only a matter of time. Greg Eastwood is a champion player.

 

[Stanna man]

Condolences go out to our Beast after the passing of his father....
all the best mate...
