As Gary says you need to have an idea about the game technically to ask that kind of question.

Maybe try this and see what response it gets.

When coaching defensive structure do you think it is better to cover different percentages of the pitches width depending whether you are in your red or green zone or would you just use a rigid structure whereby the players are evenly spread no matter where they are on the pitch. Also do you use different defensive structures dependent on your oppositions strengths and weaknesses?

May get an interesting response or he could just laugh at you.

You don't need to ask that just watch the game and the answer is clear. Warrington very rarely play a compressed sliding defence and I doubt you would change the structure becasue that would create uncertainty and indecision.

Ask him how it feels to go from assistant coach to waterboy.

words can't decribe how someone who has such knowledge of the club can make a comment like that. are you trying to be funny?

in the words of Garth Brooks & Ronan Keating

sorry i didn't realise you were refering to Smiths comments that he made in the guardian. I thought you were just being funny.

I understand now why you would want to know more.

No worries Panties? am I right.

Well Smith did say he had abit of interest from other clubs. Fully deserves the contract though, hopefully put his injuries behind him now. Provides good utility. Glad to here that Pickersgill wasn't entirely out of the team for performance reasons, hopefully he will get a few games under his belt and come back a more confident player. Likewise for Penny, It'l be at least another year or 18mnths before we see the best of Penny i believe.

Penny does need experience. I dont understand these "Penny" knockers one bit. Saying he will never make it etc but if he doesnt, so what? However, if he can work on his defence so its up to SL standard he will be a great winger. Only time will tell, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.

There's nothing wrong with his defence.
