What does anybody do in their first days in a new job? - get introduced to people, forget peoples names, ask where the toilets and tea machines are, get lost in the building - wish they hadnt left their old job.

| He hasn't left his old job, so he should be alright on that score.

He's the one constant factor in your recent history.

| I'm glad someone agrees with me.
I don't watch Briers everyweek so I'm not an expert on his performances, but something just feels off with him and the rest of the team.
It's like the coach is saying one thing to the players collectively, and then he's taking them all to one side later and saying "forget what he just said, lets do this".
Listening to Cullen on Boots n' All it's obvious that he has some idea of how the game should be played and I honestly don't think the coaching setup at Warrington is the problem.
If Smith fails at Warrington, then I don't know where you could go next.
I'm looking forward to the next Saints Warrington clash now because it should be extra special.

| Smith has said in one interview that Lowes
will pick the team for sunday,however if we
go with two hookers i would suggest there
would have been some input from Smith,
looking forward to it and to see we get a
reaction from certain members of the squad.

| I can't post on the announcement threat but congratulations on finally appointing a decent coach. I can remember the relief I felt when we appointed McRae after Hughes. McClennan was a great coach and I felt we were on the verge of breaking through only for Eric Hughes to set us back five places in the table.
Signing McRae was the best thing that Saints have done in my lifetime and I'm sure most of you will feel the same about Smith getting the job. It's the first good coach I can remember you selecting and even if he might not be able to push you to the Grand Final in such a short space of time he'll ensure that the playoffs are automatic in his seasons with you. That's a significant improvement.

Or he might get a year and three quarters of total class from him.

[quote="Eddie Hemmings said not ":1h9um51j]
"Remember last time they were here, the Huddersfield Giants, they lost to a Luke Walsh drop goal. He's only scored four drop goals in his St Helens career has Luke Walsh and each and every one of them have been scored by Luke Walsh"[/quote:1h9um51j]: |

| As has been said, his mere presence will have a galvanising effect on the squad. I would imagine that he has no specific allegiance to any player so they all know that their place on the Warrington Wolves 'gravy train' is in jeapardy.
I don't for one second believe the "Jimmy Lowes is in complete control this weekend" line. He is now the boss, he is now responsible and accountable. I have no doubt that Jimmy will have a major input, but the ultimate decisions will be Smiths. For example, if he wants an impact hooker, then I have no doubt that we will play with an impact hooker.

Probably a fair bit of IT training as well. And Health and Safety. When I started at my current place, the H&S video was Australian (typical). On the bomb threat bit the actress asked the usual questions then said:
'Dare I ask, why you are doing this?'.
Good one love, motive, that's helpful as you're about to be blown to smithereens.
