Problem for Smith he looks nervous atm kicking.
Last week he lifted his head as he kicked one and he had a big fade on it which took it wide. Same spot next conversion he kept his head down and ended up hooking it. He does not look comfortable kicking but its been dropped on him and that's unfortunate. |

Give Charnley a go he was covering for Pat when he was injured kick nine from 10 at Widnes.

Do you think Smith will come good then? If not today's result won't be unusual. It needs sorting out and should have been in the off season. |

Kicking the conversion off the touchline at 2 points down with a few mins left shows it's not nerves that's a problem. He just needs time IMO.

But according to Bilko he slipped when he kicked it. |

Hampshire kicked 120 last season, but is this a season too soon for him?

The "Hampshire Dilemma" seems to arise at every turn..... I really don't know. But, it must be a topic for discussion in management meetings.

Hopefully that last kick from the touch line can give him confidence going forward.

The one he pinged from the touchline shows he's capable. Hell of a drop goal as well.

You are probably right, but we have a hell of a prospect in Hampshire. I just don't think he should be brought in with the kicking responsibility as well, right from the start. Interesting one for management. |

It's early days yet I'd carry on working with him whilst we know Charnley's quite a poor kicker as well. Don't forget he would have needed to get all 6 for us to win

Some players would not bat an eye at having that job given to them regardless of age. The confidence of youth and all that. As you say one for the management but if he was up for it they would be daft to rule it out IMO. That is the kind of mistake I'd expect from Noble. |
