Smiths theory preseason was to run players in alternate positions to safeguard against the worst injury eventualities. 2 problems with it being, i think the stage of development of this squad under smith that the basics (players in their majority positions) were the priority, and 2nd that im not sure what a couple of games in preseason would mean to the benefit of say Gannon needing to go in to the halves halfway through the season. I hope smiths long term vision stands that test of time and the squad has longevity because of his approach, otherwise we may see a different one taken next preseason.

Clearly a man of ideas. How many of them are good ones has yet to be confirmed.

I would imagine he would be just on the edge of what we'd be willing to play for a marquee player. Roundabout 200 to 250k. The question is, would he be value for that? I don't see a lot of NRL nowadays but my recollection is that of a running half rather than an organiser. He's got 170 odd NRL games on the board so anybody who thinks he isn't good enough for SL is crackers. At 29 (next year) he'd be unlikely to want to skip back to OZ at the first opportunity. These marquee type signings are always a risk, but if we are going to roll the dice, I'd rather do it on a half than a prop forward.


Yes agree Arthur. He set up a belter of a try at the weekend, sliced the opponents apart with great footwork and pace then laid off a beauty of a pass. He'd light up SL if he is keen to play here.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Leemings transfer to Gold Cost is now agree. Leeds have caved in and no fee payable (according to Peter Smith).

Sounds sensible. Cap space and unhappy player out, is worth more to us than a fee….
Leemings forced it, but I wish him well.

Not sure what choice Leeds had. Better to let him go now. They may have held out if he wasn't going to the NRL, but not that much point really.
