Just been reading through some of the other threads and it seems alot of people do not rate smith at all and think he had been a terrible signing. But watching him play, especially at 9 against catalan he looks like he could be one of the best in superleague, a great utility player and never seemed to make a mistake or take someones head off and get banned. As far as green i havnt really seen him play but the video i posted on a thread of his highlights seems very promising (i know these can be misleading). anyway all in all i am looking forward to the pair of them in the halves next season.

I was quietly critical of the Smith signing but I've been really impressed with him and think he'll go well for us.

Smith looks to be a similar player to Deacon, unlikely to win you a game single handed but a good solid reliable cog in the machine. Looks better in defence than Deacon and is several decades younger.

Blake Green will easily hold his own for you providing he is over his injury problems
Only played 8 games this year
Takes on the line, has a decent kicking game and can defend. Plays on the right hand side of our attack

Matty Smith looks like a very shrewd signing from what we have seen so far and his versatility is a huge bonus as we have already seen this season but i think his kicking game will be one of his key assets for us in the future - something that we have really struggled with for many years in truth.
Can't say i know anything about Blake Green.
Just hope we have a very strong pack of forwards again next season otherwise it won't really matter who our half-backs are.

Ah, good taste!
What a dreadful thing!

im quite happy about the halves, however i would EVEN happier if we had a player to come off the bench. (however slow green is said to be, he is quicker and younger than finch)
i dont like this 4 forwards as the subs philosophy, as it doesnt give you the ability to change the game. therefore, another matty smith off the bench would be nice.
this would also put pressure on micky mac, whos game has gone down hill once his place in the side appeared guaranteed.
