Well there was another break straight up the middle like Wakey did in the 1st minute last week - Hull bombed it completly. At one point as well he was defending on the wing! |

Not true. There is certainly not as much traditional link work but it is still there and just as important.
When Smith was coming on last season he gave Barrett acres of space to work in with his distribution.
He is an out and out 7.
It's funny that in Oz, they still have a lot of players who are out and out 7's or 6's. We don't. |

If he hadnt kicked out on full they would have been 20 meters further back so proberly not gone over to score. |

I'm not sure that anyone from a team with Sean Longs tackling record should criticise Tim Smith though.

Anyone feel Tommy's distribution is painfully slow when he's at first reciever? It gives the opposition defence so much time to move up and smother the line.

Obviously you can't rely on statistics because they suggest that Leuluai is better than Long which we all know not to be true. |

I've noticed this. You either get a scrum half who is ALWAYS first reciever and gives quick ball to the runner. They also have outstanding kicking games and lead the team around the field exceptionally well. EG Thurston, Prince, Cronk
OR
You get the strong running, try scoring. athletic stand off. EG Inglis (who plays stand off for Melbourne), Leon Pryce also falls into this category. They also have very good distribution and a decent kicking game. EG Barrett, Campese and Anasta (You do also get the one in a millions like Lockyer though  )
Smith definitely falls into the scrum half category |

Smith really showed his class last night, hopefully he can continue this form into the season and start making the headlines for on field stuff.

That wasn't the point of the conversation, was it?
I thought it was about Smiths tackling. |

He isn't THE problem, he is one of many. One good game doesn't make him a good player. |

What does it make him then? Smith was a bloody good player before he came to Wigan and still is, you don't win the Dally M award for being a poor one. |
