Untouchable, beyond criticism, stagnating, naive?

Any of those?

Does he have to shoulder any of the blame?

I foot losing us the Grand Final completely at his feet for not having a back on the bench.

Ok, he moulded the team he inherited to glory like he did Leeds.
But questions about can he build a team.

I am not a coach, I'm just a fan...smith has done a great job with us, but our/his recruitment has been poor (excluding Matty Russell) I don't agree with some of the things that he does, but maybe that is just me...if you asked the question 'would we be better without him?' What would your answer be?

Sadly yes and definitely yes. And you can apply the same accusations to all his pals in and out of the jerseys too.

I'd go with this - He got the team that Paul Cullen built to finally perform to its potential.

Now that side has gradually grown old and left, he has the true test of building his own side - At the moment, he looks like he is doing a poor job of it.

Several of the players simply don't look upto the required standard, those few that are upto standard, are not doing it on the field - When that happens questions have to be asked of your coach.

Whilst I'm not advocating any 'Smith Out' campaign, I would always remind people that however good a coach may be, they do have a natural lifespan at any one club - It just might be that Smith has reached that point at Wire and it could be time for a fresh face with fresh ideas, who, supported with some fresh finance from Simon Moran, could shake up the squad, which, if anything, is showing signs of lethargic complacency.

You have to take into consideration that it was a Friday evening fixture and during the start of the Easter holidays.

With the nastiness of the M62 East Hull to Warrington on a Friday night isn't good ,we may have got a couple of thousand more if we'd played Sunday afternoon. Buts hats off to the noisy HKR fans who made it.
