Were gonna miss him.

He has it all - pace/skills/toughness.

I cant think of anyone in the league who Id prefer in our centres/full back at the momment.

He really will leave a massive hole in our current squad. He's been as good a full back as Webb this year when having to fill in and I never realised his dead ball kicking was as good as it has shown to be.

Big shame he's going.

I prsonally think Senior will leave a bigger gap when he retires.

yep, totally agree

the man is a monster at the moment, cracking runs, brilliant offloads and has the attitude of a youngster when it comes to playing...and maybe to the women also

People who know the game, should have realized what a star he would be 3 years ago.

Certain posters on this board still think he is only the 3rd best winger.

i wonder if he definately will leave?
scruton almost stayed at the last minute after saying he would leave

Bet Scrutes is still wishing he had stayed!

some people think he's slow..... they are wrong about most things though.

He's no Scott Donald, but then he's no Paul Wellens either. He's more than fast enough for Super League.

Apart from one occasion in the 2nd half when he dropped the ball on the 1st tackle bringing the ball out of defence I thought Smith had an excellent game not least with his goal kicking which I was concerned about when I found that Sinny wasn't playing.

2004 to 2009 inclusive:

Lee Smith, 11 from 18 = 61% (after last night 15 from 22 = 68%)

Rob Burrow, 107 from 142 = 75%

By comparison

Kevin Sinfield, 770 from 958 = 80%

He had a reasonble game, but you could hardly say he has set the super league alight this year. Yes he will be missed i understand he has gone for the money. But he should look at the recent players who have changed codes, not many very well, K Pryce, The Volcano and Chev Walker who looks a pale shadow of himself and off course Judas Harris

I think you're under selling him, he's been the biggest factor in giving our team a balanced attack from both flanks, oh and playing out of position in a untested role. Fair enough he's proven more of a runner than creator but he will be a loss, especially long term. I'm sure we did everything possible to keep our best home grown player in the last few years but sadly these things happen.

I think you have got my point wrong he has done reasonble well this year, he is part of a side that is not playing well but is top of the league. I would like him to stay and he should consider joining the rah rah boys may well in the long run not be a great career move.

for me he'd be the starting full back & webb in the centres.

A lot more dangerous running the ball out & just as safe @ the back.

Shame he's going other than london & money @ this stage union can't offer him more & only Robinson could be said to have been a successful convert who hadn't played the game b4.
