At this time of the year, words are very cheap. I hear 'toughest pre-season ever' and 'fittest I've ever been' every day, but I can't help but believe every single word that comes out of his mouth!

[b:33tg3xj5]Me:[/b:33tg3xj5] I'm still reeling from the news that someone is considering watching the 1st and 3rd game on Saturday and NOT watching Warrington play. It's like being in Shea Stadium when the Beatles came to town and deciding to nip out for a fag. [b:33tg3xj5]knockersbumpMKII:[/b:33tg3xj5] Is it FOOK, you're good but you're not THAT good, jesus you wanky fans need to get over yourselves, Beatles at the Shea in '65 was a once in a lifetime opportunity for some (despite the following years performance), you can watch a very good team in primrose & yellow play every week if you really wanted to but comparing it to one of the very best music groups of all time in an iconic stadia such as the shea is overegging your importance, you're not even the best team in SL atm:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_50086.jpg

To some greatness comes naturally In Smith we trust:Black Backgrounds/Animal.gif



Fantastic interview with what the fans want to hear. The Lord Tony Smith always talks sense and looks for positives. Great news about Mike Monnas being fit and Bret is barking orders to the team. Hurry up February!

Hang on! I’ve said he’s not a bad coach, but to say he ”always talks sense” is a bit of an OTT bum lick even for a wire. icon_hearteyes.gif

To say something like that you must have occasions of him NOT talking sense. As i cant think of any, could you show us these occasions of non sense making please.... I would hate to be labelled a bum banger / licker as well.

Hombre lighten up! Take off your I heart Tony T-shirt, this is not a court of law I don’t need to defend my opinion in rhyming off silly or clumsy things that he, SW me or I’m sure even you, come out with from time to time. The point I made in IMO, was valid, the guy does at times say things in a way I think later he would wish he hadn’t. I have, haven’t you? Or are you different to everyone else, you seem to think he is. These boards are for comment and debate on RL and other things, some people sometimes like to keep things on the lighter-side with little wind-ups. You should learn to know the difference!

Given it was filmed on a mobile phone our Tony may just have been worried he was going to get happy slapped.

On a serious note I enjoy listening to Tony. Other coaches are more polished but for me he always says the right things.

My guess is that you do that 13 or 14 times a day.

I am glad that you guys see sense that the word of Tony Smith is law.

Those of us that have been arguing for a while that there are too many teams in Super League have had to put up with the critics on this forum that say we need to be spreading the game, increasing the number not decreasing.

Let the word of Lord Smith be the final one on the matter. There are too many clubs and there isn't enough quality to go round.
