I have to ask, where the hell is New Zealend????

Geography, a subject where your knowledge is even worse than Rugby League.

Who is going to be the victim of your get out of the club campaign by the end of Sunday???

Smith was poor last week he is what we have got so lets get behind him. its not easy for a halfback to slot into a team and make a diference straight away. give him a few more games then start to rate him geting on his back after one game wont help him settle.

I bet Harvey is so pleased he came over to Wakefield to gain some invaluable first team experience.
I mean he could just have stayed at Warrington and played in the U20s.
If Harvey doesnt take the stand off role on Sunday for the first team,it will show what a clot JK is.
What was the point of loaning him.

Agreed. I doubt he can play next week against Wire, so total waste of the lads time.

As has been said before should have played last week instead of Smith who was clearly not match fit

To be fair wasnt harvey signed before smith got his visa clearance? Maybe we had signed him unaware of how long that would be. Saying that though id have still played harvey last week

Dont you think JK was hoping smith would put up a good showing against is old club, sometimes it works

Totally wrong viewpoint from JK though. If he had had a full pre-season training with the rest of the guys and was match fit fair enough. As it happened he had been out injured and unable to train with the team due to visa issues.

He has been training with the team as normal and has had virtually a full pre-season. He had a visa to be in the country so could train but didn't have a working visa so couldn't play.

Good shout, i agree

Not what I recall him saying in the Express a week or two ago, plus he deffo had a knee injury, which he probably hasn't shook off yet as evidenced by the bandage he wore on Sunday

I have to admit to not rating Smith as a player but he deserves more than one game before people write him off. See how hes doing in half a dozen games time and judge him then.

Bandage, looked like a wicket keeper to me

At the end of the day, we have to go with what we have

Was smith not allowed to train with team due to not having perrmit cleared prior to match? Thought I'd read that but may be wrong. In hindsight it wasn't the best call but it's easy to criticise that, if selection is based on performance then smith and dean (who had s good game vs cats) would not play this week.

Regardless players have off days but still need our support from the terraces. Too early to get on players backs yet
