It’s harsh to judge Smith given the powder puff pack he is playing behind but I really don’t see him as a top half prospect never mind a half capable of playing for a side expected to challenge for honours.

There are bigger issues than that however it’s a situation we need to address.

Generally it’s a bit like watching an amateur kids game where a team of immature 13 year olds turn up to play a mature team of 13 year olds.

Plenty of effort but in reality getting dominated in all aspects of the game.

With the number of injuries we have and the fact we are so inferior to most teams physically our conditioning department needs to be refreshed in a significant way.

Your welcome to our whole conditioning team at Leeds!

Shambolic...

Two weeks on the trot we have burst through looking for back up.

We really are a poor team.

I’m struggling to remember as bad an individual display from a scrum half as what Smith has served up today. Maybe back to the Moran days but what Smith has served up has been pretty dreadful.

Even when we make a clean break we do not know what to do.

Behind a beaten pack or not that was horrendous from Smith.

Kicked out on the full 2 or 3 games on the bounce, lacks dominance and poor decisions.

- no one is with LB when he breaks through
- Smith gets the ball at the 70, runs across the field slower than my dead Nan, throws a pass you could see coming from last Tuesday and Mamo intercepts for another p155 easy try

Lam can put his head in his hands all he wants. This is his doing. His team. His tactics. He needs to go now. It’s really f***ing grating me how IL hasn’t pulled the trigger already. What more does he need?!?!

That was a good try in fairness. Well built and executed

It showed exactly why Hastings is needed in the halves

The Difference putting Hastings in the halves makes is incredible

Another poor play from Smith, offered less than nothing attempting to stop Hughes.

Basically let him walk through almost like he thought he was playing touch and pass.

I’m sat about 30m from that try right in line. The panic was obvious.
