I just don't get this hatred towards Smith.Fair enough he has brain farts but so does every player but what people are forgetting is that he is playing behind a beaten pack every game and is often kicking out of his own 20-30 metre zone cos the forwards are ineffective.
Think if he is here next year and with some decent forward signings he will come good as he has shown his passing can be sublime and his kicking would be better if we were not being dominated.

Keyboard warriors wont realise this because they have never played the game...at any level!

Fully agree regarding John total waste and this is leaving Smith trying to do everything and being exposed.

Keyboard warrior? Whatever. How about Wildie, Walshaw or Annekin to name 3. I've paid for my ticket and I'll have my say whether on this forum or on the terrace.

Yes, you are a keyboard warrior. Annakin or Walshaw?! Please, one is a loose forward or 2nd Rower and the other is a Centre/2nd Rower! Excellent like for like replacement arguement!!

Whatever any forum members say WTW won't get anybody with a better pedigree than Tim Smith. He has proven NRL quality and experience but like others say he is under pressure due to a pack not going consistently forward or winning the collision.



THE ONLY WAY WE WILL GET THE BEST OUT OF OUR PLAYERS IS TO SUPPORT THEM FULLY NOT PULL THEM APART. ITS A CONFIDENCE GAME & SMITH HAS SHOWN SOME REAL QUALITY AT TIMES DURING THE SEASON. HE NEEDS TO KNOW THAT HE IS BE WILLED ONTO PRODUCE INSPIRATION TO A STRUGGLING TEAM. TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER.....

i know some people prob won't agree but if your pack isn't going forward then as a half back you are on a loser as you have no space or time to work and create plays, to me we can match in forwards for 40/60 mins at best then we are shot to pieces as we just arn't big enough in forwards, that said tim smith needs to take line on more as does johns to be fair too many sideways plays for my liking, but this is just my humble opinion

ok help me out here

southern smith and john are getting al the hammer

but very big ali isnt????????????????????

booing smith pointless and stupid, just look at the second half forward battle and you have the answer.

wire fans good as always tho.

Eh???

Not the lads biggest fan, but you never boo one of your own, when he's being subbed. Never.

I think it is self explanatory really? His head was shot, he was 'gone'. The abuse he got from the sideline today was disgusting throughout the game. I think anyone would be a tad upset and not in the right place after that. That coupled with his mental illness and you a risking him going off the rails again.
