Re Lee Smith. Won't be part of the ex Leeds at Cas.

Where's he off to then?

I don't get this criticism of Raleigh - he's been great for us and, barring his period of injury, very consistent; he wins the collision in both attack and defence and although he's not a tackle-busting prop, he gets a quick ptb and has decent feet.

It's a shame to vent your frustration on any single player, but it's downright daft to direct it at one who does the small things right week in and week out.

The strong rumour is Bradford. Also Addy to be announced as our next signing shortly.

Great, so we are signing the worst defensive player in Super League

Smith going to re sign for us.

Due to the Addy rumour I watched him closely yesterday.

My first impression was his strange body shape. He has a massive backside and thick thighs and looks like a prop from the waist down. Top half has small shoulders and thin trunk and looks like a back.

He played quite well yesterday and showed some nice things both in attack and defence.

My only question is where will he play, because like his body he looks a mix and match sort of player.

Hope he is. Just the rumour going round yesterday re: Bradford.

He does have a wierd body shape! I noticed that. People on here have mentioned his as a stand off? We need to improve our short kicking game so maybe he can do that??

From what I've read thats the issue with him. He doesn't have a set position. If he settles down in one area then it may be beneficial. Made a decent break and swung momentum Bradfords way, but didn't notice him for the rest of the game.

I'd play Addy at Loose IMO has a decent kicking game and can pick out weak links in defences (Yesterday running at T Smith.)

With that I assume Washbrook, as has been rumoured, would be leaving. There's no way he wouldn't be in the side if he was still at the club.
