Matty Smith : Fri Jun 22, 2012 6:20 pm  

Although it is generally accepted that Matty has signed for the pies; he states that he has signed nothing as yet. If he is still negotiating, are Saints still involved in bringing him to LP. stranger things have happened.

They have indeed but I think he'll be a goon next year. I just hope we drive his price right up.

Matty was ok tonight and in the first half in particular showed up our halfbacks totally.

He looked pretty good when Salford was on top but went missing when Salford needed him and IMO that's the type of player he is.

I disagree. Salford don't have the forwards to give him space. When we turned things around in the second half they needed big forwards to put in big effort in order to provide the space but that is what Salford lack and so Smith couldn't be as effective.

Top halves change games but I do a agee thier pack wasnt up to it.

Matty smith is nothing more than your average scrum half and will never be more than that.

I don't know I thought Smith had a decent game tonight.

I think he'll be a good signing for Wigan - if that's where he ends up.

I don't think we need him though

I think he will fit in very well in wigans style of play but IMO he's not the halfback we require.
