Roger Draper extends his contract too. A few more years of stability at the club.

Definitely good news that both have signed / extended.
With stability off the field the 'on field' can only benefit.

Is it normal for a CEO to have a contract like that? They are not normally on 'contracts' as such are they? Not in the same vein as a player contract at any rate that are time specified... |

Can anyone tell me what he has done over the previous three years to warrant a contract extension? Don't get me wrong I do like Smith but it just seems a strange decision based on the past couple of seasons. He hasn't won a trophy for three years and we give him two more years, would the top teams settle for that standard of trophy winnings?

I'm sorry I'm not quite following what you mean? Don't get me wrong I don't want Smith out and have never have done but giving him an extension based on the previous year is baffling to me. |

he is (was) out of contract at the end of the year, when should they have offered him a new deal, or decided to find someone new? |

I'm guessing you looked for a new coach and found there aren't any on the market that are better than Smith. Sadly all the great ex-NRL players seem to want to go straight into media now.

I'm guessing we had no intention of looking to see who else was available. If TS was happy with staying, he was always going to get a new contract - A view I personally agree with. If he fails to deliver a major trophy in 2016 or 2017, then 2018 may well be his last. |

I personally would have put a contract on the table and said "win the Grand Final and its all yours". I suppose there's the problem that he might find a different club if that was the case but that's a risk I would be willing to take. |

| I can't believe we are even discussing whether Smiths contract should be renewed....NO BRAINER!!!! 
Prior to his appointment we could only dream of Wembley, League Leaders Shield & Grand Finals. And now having gone thru a period of player/staff transition we are questioning a new contract???
Wake up & smell the coffee folks!!!!!  |
