| Quote: Moving Forward "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?'"
He's just started something again so needs to see it through. He also made mistakes in the previous two seasons to this one and needs to be given the time to rectify them. |

On Smith...i think he played Wire like a fiddle.
No CC win or GF appearance and i want him gone that simple.

Who would you replace him with?
Despite his shortcomings I would not want any other present SL coach. |

In SL the ONLY coach i would even consider is Powell, not that i want him but the only one from here.
I would go with the Walker brothers from the Jets if i had my way

It's worth as much as the context I put it in.
It was neither your quote either. I used reference of your quote that was put into a public domain and altered it for my purpose so then it was my quote.
Chill out man. Problems galore in the world and you don't seem willing to share a little lighthearted humour with your forum buddies. |

Sorry Yed I disagree, I don't think that's "simple".
Sure he may have made a mistake (who hasn't) in succession planning and recruitment maybe trying to win the GF with the old guard one last hoorah etc but I'm up for seeing what this team can do over the next two years as I think he's sorting it out |

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg |

I think his recruitment this season has been spot on, it addressed many of the problems, leadership perhaps being the biggest.

i wasnt happy last season with him... and it wasn't just based on last season... i think he got lazy and the club declined and suffered as a result.
if we had got rid, i wouldn't have been upset.
HOWEVER, i think he has recruited well and he deserves a chance to put things right. I'm not going to call for his head if we dont win a cup this season.... as long as i can see progress im happy.
in my opinion, in the past he has signed very badly from the NRL.... But Gidley and Sandow are the real deal..... im not sure they couldn't have been signed without smith though, and i wonder whop calls the shots at our club signing wise.
This new contract may appear premature, as we haven't been great under him for years now... but im optimistic for this season and im happy with him extending now i think.
