If you look at his record last season, he scored 6 tries in 9 games, which is a pretty good record considering he was a mid season signing. He still has class, and it would be a major setback if we sold him, he could have a big season next season!

Ok then but seeing as it's the season of goodwill please take this post in the jest it is intended

It's a fair point try scorer. There is a lot of tittle tattle on here that is not for everyone.
Your opinion is valued, its just that I don't agree.

Hope we find middle ground somewhere.
You are in the lucky position of either being proved right and able to take the high ground or proved wrong and Smith (and Wakefield) will be doing better than expected.

i ceartainly will call a truce on the subject. And i agree with shifty when i read it again it was hard work but not right used to the keys. If i had known the teacher was watching i would certainly have tried harder

Smith was a player that I couldn't stand during his first spell at Leeds because he was a bit of a wind up merchant but he had great vision and did some great things for Leeds in attack. Given the chance to sign him then I would have snapped him up even with his attitude, so having got him now at what should be the prime of his career the thought of what he can do for us excites me, so I'll make a prediction and stand to be shot down.
Given a good pre season with clogger on his back and a fair run at centre next season he will be the best English centre in SL.

I'm gonna stick my neck out and back you on that, there isn't any out there better than clogger

Let's not forget Watkins though eh
