Quote: leicester_rhino "I don't read that as Smith is considered better than Webb at Fullback. I read it as either

Correct.If a player is automatically selected when returning from injury, firstly the returning player could become complacent and secondly the inform player would think why the heck should I bother and who could blame him.Also Webb did not beat the first defender when returning kicks as well as in previous seasons and Smith is proving more effective at this so far.Tackling wise there is also little between them.

If that is true wouldn't every decent pro RL player be playing Union right now?

Nope. Only certain positions are close enough in terms of skills

But if this money really talks where's the evidence of the player drain in those positions?

Maybe they only want the 'best'. Which is why they took Wallker, Ashton, A knackered Vainikolo, A knackered up Farrell, Karl Pryce and a knackered Hape icon_lol.gif

Phew Smith's not injury prone yet, so we should be OK.

I noticed that Smith seems to have returned the kicks better from FB but I think a large part would be teams look at Webbs tendencies and focus on him a little more. His work rate remains impressive at FB and he always looks a threat. He's certainly made sure we've not been lacking at 1 in Webbs absence so I don't think we'll be rushing him back before he's ready. Once he is ready you have to play Webb at 1 though

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj] Kevin Sinfield:982.jpg

Will he see the season out (as per his contract ala Chev Walker) or will the club be compensated and Smith released in readiness for the RU season (ala Iestyn Harris) ?

If he goes.

What he meant was a deadline has been placed as end of June for agreement on a new contract. Otherwise it then goes the other way.

At least I think that is what he meant, if he has heard the same thing that I posted a couple of weeks back.
