I can predict how this is going to go, Smith will get sacked soon and despite the writing being on the wall for over a year that he isn't good enough GH will have absolutely no one lined up or even half an idea who could replace him. Cheap option is picked like recruiting from within, maybe even give it to Chev. Season is finished by the end of April and we extend the transition period for another 4 years.GH picks another cheap option to replace Chev and it all starts again.
‘Smith Out’ is indeed a ridiculously simplistic view of the situation.
Back to cheap interim leadership for rest of season. Then another coach in, squad rebuild, 3 year plan which is unlikely to work out. Players still playing for Smith, so honestly think fans are patient /accept win nada this season, or walk away for a while. There is enough good stuff being played to suggest we may get there in next 2 years…..
Need to keep the better players together at the club. At least NRL won’t be pinching Croft in near future, which would have happened if he was flying……
