| Quote SaintsFan="SaintsFan"I haven't yet looked. But in the NRL isn't a 6 a five eighth? He was talking about being a 7, since that is where he was signed to start. At 7.'"
Half back is techincally 6 or 7, they do call 6 a 5/8 but the still refer to both positions as halves.
In his own words he has never played any regular rugby in the halves in the NRL, to have him as our main experienced half back is big risk.
He is a very talented player who I am sure will do well at Saints but I'd much prefer him having a year alongside an experienced half to bed into Saints as opposed to directing the team first off.

| Quote No1 Saint="No1 Saint"It sound like a strategy Northern Rock would be proud of . Lomax emergence as a 7 was driven by the Eastmond saga and injuries the 'world cup winner' is a fullback who fancies a crack at halfback..
thats not planning. Planning would be thinking .. ok Pryce might be leaving at the end of the year and we know Eastmonds gone so lets see if we can bring in a proven experienced half to help the kids.'"
plans change though. Had Lomax not proved to be a revelation at half back, they may have offered Pryce a better deal. The fact that Lomax and Gaskell have performed really well this year has given more options (and headaches - due to them deserving more money etc...) and meant that Pryce was no longer a "must keep" - which it looked like at the time that Eastmond announced he was going.

Yes, I know that. But the context of the discussion I listened to was about him playing at 7, not at 6, and he said it was 7 he had only played at in the junior levels, that he had played at 6 (5/icon_cool.gif but he had been told (his word) by the coach to play at fullback for the last few years (he did give a number).
Tonight I will dig out the interview with him from the Saints site, if the link is still there.

| Quote Saddened!="Saddened!"Good to see Catalans are showing some ambition. Dureau, Pryce, Bosc AND Carney? They will be immensely creative next season.
If this turns out to be true it's a very puzzling situation. Why? What the hell are the club playing at?'"
And Louis Anderson.

I would imagine there is something in his past that would threaten him getting a visa, knowing what he's like.

I would think that unfortunatlly, he is to good for the super league at this time. Maybe when he is older and his best years are behind him he may consider it but if the Roosters were thinking of letting him go, a lot of NRL clubs would be chasing his signature.
