Quote: chunkyhugo "TBH with all the money spent to assemble a quality team yet still failing to deliver the GF success the fans crave, the answer is a huge YES IT HAS. The CC wins have merely papered over the cracks. Something is wrong and you have to point the finger at Mr Smith when he has such a talented set of players at his disposal.'"
Just to put some perspective on this garbage - During Tony Smith's five years in charge there have been 2 major prizes a season on offer, totalling 10 trophies..... Of those 10 trophies, Wigan have won 4, Leeds have won 3, and we have scooped the remaining 3.
Add to that, apart from this season, each year has seen a significant improvement in the team's performance - To suggest Smith has failed is complete nonsense... Admittedly, he is probably reaching a point where unless he delivers the Super League title, then he has only one other way to go and that is backwards, but at this point in time it is absurd to say Smith has not done a very decent job.
