If the RFL ok it, he will return to Saints to play for them in the play-offs due to there half back injuries. No official source as of yet and it does depend IF the RFL give it the go ahead.

Was he not on a season long loan? It all depends on what was classed as a season in the contract.

Its a win win for me, he'll get to test himself @ playoff football and comeback a better player which will benefit us next season.

I just wish somebody would pull him and tell him when attacking the defencive line take a extra step and a half and draw out the defensive line rather than just shiping the ball on as soon as you get it.

Sort this part of your game out and you'll be a international in 3 years. dont and you will be probably playing for leigh icon_wink.gif

Good move for Matty Smith

It will improve his game and the Reds will benefit by this next season.

GOOD LUCK MATTY...

Luke Robinson was guilty of this during his spell with the club. You have to draw the defenders in then release the ball at the last split second. OK you may have to endure a few big hits but does it matter if you put someone through a gap?

story here rlSmith Poised for shock saints Returnrl

Whatever you think of his merits playing for Salford ( [iLoaded question for some [/i )
This must feel good for Matty after being surplus to requirements at the start of the season .

Hope he gets to play some part , It'll be a quiz question and a half if Saints make it to Old Trafford.

After all this he's not even been picked in their initial 19 man squad?

What are their other half-back options? Roby with Wilkin moving to 6 perhaps?

If Lomax is fit he'll play 6 with Scott Moore at 7 I would think.

If Lomax is ruled out, Smith will play.

I think part of the problem is the speed of his passing action isnt very fast so the few times he's attacked the line cut back and released the ball the defensive line is up and is able to intercept or knock the ball down.

I surpose its like telling a miner how to dig for coal in a way, he does it every day saying that he does strike me as somebody who is willing to learn and adapt just need a dvd of him handy and a magic pen to highlight it at a forever Reds meeting when he comes down icon_wink.gif

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Quote: theredshed "Luke Robinson was guilty of this during his spell with the club. '"

If you have had two players suffering with an identical problem could it be that the coaching is a bit off in that area rather than the players? Just a thought.

Smith did very well for us in 2007 when he helped to steer us to the Grand Final, only to be dropped for a not at all fit Longy (and we lost anyway). He's had two years experience since then.

My own thoughts are that Potter will only play him if Lomax isn't fit. Eastmond will not play either way and Pryce is out for the remainder of our season now.

Personally, I hope he gets a shot at it. We can lose this game if need be,, although none of us wants to obviously! But if we do then at least he will have had a go with the Saints team of the present day and will have some further practice and training ready for the knock out stuff the week after.
