Thank you Lee for the last 18 months and good look with your new venture

Shame. I await his replacement with interest.

Like I said before. A real shame Smith didn't leave before Cowling. He may have been persuaded to stay on at the club to fight for the now available centre spot.

Pick one of Briscoe, Kienhorst and Lyne.

Lee Smith wage will free up a bit of revenue from this years playing budget. If the right player became available we might be lucky enough to acquire them. The club are still not affluent, so if we don't use it for another addition then we have made savings.

I thought Lees biggest asset was he could bounce of players with ease and make good yards. He could be elusive and came up with some good individual plays and scored a couple of nice tries. (Obviously a good goal kicker too). He wasn't poor or great for us but I don't think he broke too many pots. He has experience and only time will tell whether we have players to fill his boots. With Briscoe, Keinhurst and Walshaw chomping at getting game time, I'm hopeful they will be more than adequate.

Fill yer boots boys, as one door closes another one opens...

tongue in cheek? can't place the context there WTID! I thought you'd signed a few backs like... Unless that Harry Sjekia (?) is the replacement?

Didn't like Lee Smith, for the reason that he always played well against Cas!

Guess £ is the influence, can't knock the bloke

It's a shame but if we use his wage money wisely it can be turned into a good thing.
Not the best time to be changing the team around but hopefully Agar has been preparing for this for a while now.

A gamble as no pre season games played but Keinhorst at centre as Briscoe will probably be at 5 instead of Lynne IMHO.

Struggling RL club to struggling RU club where he didn't adapt well last time when he played for Wasps. It's got to be about the money for Lee Smith rather than career progression.

The rumours of Smith leaving started last year so hopefully he won't have been included as a key player in the season's preparations. Bit of an annoyance that he's pick up his salary over the off season when its seems he's been set to leave for the majority of it.

Craig Hall perhaps

MC said in the radio Leeds interview that depending on if a player left we could have another 3 maybe 4 players come in, didn't he? What size wage must LS have been on??

can't Keinhorst, Lynne and Briscoe cover centre? and isn't Kirmo a centre/second row?

not seen your full squad of late to be sure, but money would be better spent covering other areas, possibly?

Good luck Lee thanks for your efforts
