Quote ="worthing wire"What do you mean, 'Nah'? A very considered post, that. Implying (in a hilariously sarcastic tone), I would suggest, that SEB's reading of the events is of course correct, and my opinion is to be dismissed out of hand. Brilliant.
For all [uanyone[/u knows, the board could have tried to get Smith straight after the World Cup. The fact remains that they didn't succeed at that time - all I'm saying is that that remains a pity, and perhaps he could have been appointed if they hadn't rushed into giving Lowes a longer contract than was really necessary.'"
Or, we tried to get Smith to replace Cullen, but despite repeated efforts, a release from his fulltime RFL contract could not be obtained. So, in the full knowledge that Smith's contract with the RFL finished at the end of this season, possibly, Lowes was given a caretaker role, his contract ending to coincide with Smith becoming available. Maybe, just maybe Lowes' appointment wasn't rushed at all and the club had tried for the best part of three months to get Smith but wasn't successful.
Nah........
