| Quote: Bigredwarrior "Unbelievable! Matty Smith lacks skill. His passing accuracy is awful, he's slower than my Mum, Williams had to do far too much because of Smiths ineffective play.
This season we have been far more fluent in attack because of Tommy. He is dictating all that we do, freeing Williams up to wreak havoc.
Tommy wasn't great on Friday but it was the defence down Gelling's flank that got ripped apart. Not because of Tommy who is far better than Smith ever was or ever will be!'"
I agree with this. For me Matty Smith was a 'crap weather' performer, even then I have only seen him put in two superb performances ever! One for Wigan (Hull FC Wembley Final) and England's Test Match vs New Zealand at the DW a couple of years back. Both of these games were played during downpours and the pitches were heavy.
I never saw him break a defensive line, a show & go and hit the gap. Never.
Nevertheless he comes across as a really decent guy, was impressed at the time he spent consoling Wire players at the end of last years Grand Final.

With regards to Smith last night it was a typical Smith performance and I wouldn't expect much more from him. What on earth was Wilkin doing kicking on 2nd tackle? Time he called it a day, he's pants!!'"
Get yourself over to Redvee. After a couple of weeks of solidification the meltdown is once again in full swing - hilarious!

| I dont know what you guys are complaining about, I dont think your halves are why you lost that game
Williams is looking very good, I thought his tries were a bit soft by us, but his general play has definately improved, I dont know why some of our fans were giving him stick, I dont think he his the Lee Briers (or S Tomkins for that matter) type who constantly winds up opposition fans and wines at the ref
If he wants to be number 6 for england though he still needs to do more outside the opposition 40, as Widdop has started well this year
Overall good game I thought, just what you want from Leeds Wigan, some skill on show and plenty of aggression and (from my point of view) Leeds taking the 2 points
Nearly crashed my car when heard Wanes interview, saying we were the better team, fair play to him

It's probably in the script IL has given him. He probably wanted to say Ferres is a dirty bar steward and should have been sent off but IL doesn't want to pay the fine.
