he's ok i suppose.

is he? can't say I've really noticed!

In a salary capped sport, it's inevitable. Why do you think so few teams retain the title in super league?

I think super league history shows that it does happen to everyone, in varying degrees.

You've got yourselves up there into that cycle of success so you'll see for yourselves what happens in the next 5 years.

Just don't be suprised if things seemingly go awry for a few years and other teams suddenly overtake you. Look at you and wigan over leeds and saints in the last 18months, and leeds saints have proven track records and aren't managed by mugs.

you sound a barrell full of laughs..whats your blood group b negative

He leaves to pursue new challenges. He's a good coach so once he's acheived his goals at one club offers come in from elsewhere and he picks the ones he desires.

I'm not sure what there is left for him to acheive besides some form of role at the rfl where he can work to revolutionise the playing standards over here as a whole and not just at one club.

But if you think he's gonna be here for years and years and years constantly achieving success you're in cloud cuckoo land.

know him well do you?

No it's 'A realistic'.

Show me one coach in the modern game that has stayed at a club for the type of timeframes you are discussing?

The only one that comes to mind is wayne bennett and he had loads of dry spells inbetween successes. (guess he just didn't ''plan ahead'' huh? 0

You will win every game and every trophy for the next 60 years.

Your fan base will grow to 6 trillion globally and smith will still be coaching from his hospital bed, kept alive wiuth advanced anti ageing and life support methods.

By the same resources, lee briers will still be kicking teams to death.

ahhhh... you're one of these people that thinks they're dead funny .... carry on... it's impressive... you really got me with the 'coaching from his hospital bed' gag.

oh dear

some people do insist on being 'in the know'...only to make themselves look childish and a little silly....its not pretty.

run along dear...only winners allowed on this forum...and supporters that have some class about them...like Huddersfield fans.

He/She is quite amusing actually and just makes the point that nothing lasts forever (don't I know it as a saints fan?)

Can't you just be happy you have the best team and the best coach in SL without getting involved in what might happen in years to come?

I know its your forum and its a thread about how good TS is (and he is) but I was hoping that after so many years in the wilderness that you would all just enjoy your deserved sucess without wanting to stick the boot in on others.
Hope you win the GF if we don't.

Some of Smith's best fist pumps last night.
