| Quote rubber duckie="rubber duckie"Could it be Tony Smith is a manager like Brian Noble or Ian Millwall?.. In the sense that each were/are good at man management and have the skill to tinker a structure and maintain its productivity at a high output?
Yet to date, have any of them proven that they can build a side?
Cullen took us as far as he could but I reckon he was ill-advised over halfbacks and his misfortune was inevitably playing hookers at 7.
Had Bridge not gone astray I believe Cullen may just had of done it. He was on the cusp but the Monaghan at 7 did him in the end.
Is Smith is playing the same dumb move when he throws Monas in at 7 too?'"
How many players who were signed by Smith played in the last two Grand Finals we got to?

| Some of what is said here is way off the mark.
A few bad results - and I daresay a few more to come whilst things get sorted out - and some are calling for TS's head.
Unbelievable.
I guess some of you guys are calling for Moyes to go to....
Why do so many want 'instant success'?
A sign of the times I suppose.
This year was always going to be difficult with Moz, Carvell, Coops and Hodgson going - and then Briers unexpectedly.
I fully accept we have issues in the halves and the centres aren't particularly impressive.
Asotasi has to settle in still and with not having Wood and Harrison we're struggling up front.
There's a lot to do and it will take time.

| Maybe I misunderstood the sentiment of a few.
This year will be tough - no doubt about that.
I just hope some don't kick the team when / if they're down.

| Indeed he did but I understood the question to be..
How many players who were signed by Smith played 《in the last 《two》》 Grand Finals we got to?
And not either.

Hodgson was definitely dropped for the final in 2013. That means he didn't play in two grand finals.
is that not the question?

| Quote rubber duckie="rubber duckie"Dare i say....
Could it be that Cullen left us a legacy of what a decent pack was?
TS inherited it but hasn't learnt how to put together another?
Now then, there's a controversial question for you all to rip into me over!!'"
The pack Cullen left us was Rauhihi, Clarke, Morley; L Anderson, Westwood; V Anderson with bench forwards of Wood, Bracek, Pickersgill, Parker and Mark Gleeson
How much stronger was that pack than Tony Smith's packs?

Ah I get what you mean now. I understood it to be either. Can take Trent away from that list as well if you meant both.
