Arrogant Australian....never! Smith is arguably the best coach SL has seen, but he does let himself down . Like the 'it's nothing special, just another game' speech before the 2005 cc final. Whatever his personal thoughts towards club call are it's known from day one of the season that it will happen. Deal with it ffs!

It's still arrogance all the other coaches don't like the system but had the presence to turn up, still it spared us from having his usual 1 hours sermon

| Quote NickyKiss="NickyKiss"All part of the plan to make it look like he had nothing to do with the selection. I can't see that anybody buys that!
All talk of saying he wants nothing to do with it and not turning up at the press conference is to try and take the heat out if the situation and make it look like they're not simply saying 'we want to play Huddersfield because they're not as good as Leeds. That is what they're saying and I don't see why they're trying to mask it.
They're better then Huddersfield, they batter then everytime they play and Leeds are the best play off team in the history of the British game. It was a no brainer to pick them but Wire should just be honest about it.'"
Absolutely spot on.
My missus calls Tony Smith "shifty eyes". He never looks the interviewer in the face. Can't trust a single word he says. (Great coach through!) |

My missus calls me the silverback, but that's another story !!!!
I think that the disrespect shown by Smith is reflective of the general amount of respect that the RFL commands from teams and fans alike.
Don't think he should have done it, but I can understand why. |

I know why she'd say that because that's how he comes across on TV but I must say that having approached him and spoken to him when "off duty" and not needing to speak to a member of the public he is an extremely charming and likeable guy. He does have an awkwardness about him on TV though |

I think he worries about what to say and becomes like a robot in he's responses. but i know in person he is a great bloke and really friendly, so is tony smith he's a lot more warm in person. |

Why does the coach have to be there? Surely either the Captain or the Chairman should be, or is RL becoming like soccer the way the media is obsessed with the managers rather than the players?
