The whole “he’s not a big game player” is a farce. How he didn’t win Lance Todd trophy in that game is still a mystery. He’s been brilliant in almost every big game since Peet has taken over. A lot of Wigan fans don’t rate him though cos he misses a few goals, but his in game kicking is for me the best in league. The amount of games we’ve won with his kicking game is immense for his age. Leigh on Friday was a perfect example.

I've never understood the criticism Harry gets from some of the wigan fans.

Form me he's one of the best in his position. His out of hand kicking game is probably the best in the league and his quality of passing often goes unnoticed due to the quality of players at the end of them. He's a young kid who has had the responsibility of being the senior half back for the past two seasons.

The only downside is his conversions - and IMO you don't really slag someone off for taking on that responsibility as obviously no one else wants to do it, or he's judged the best in the club.

why would that matter?

Hastings did alright winning Man Of Steel then considering he wore 31.

My point is that 2021 our half back pairing was Hastings and Tommy,

Then at the start of last year was Tommy and Cust.

Just pointing out this is his proper year as our number 7. Both in the number on his back and starting the year as the man.

He’s doing brilliantly.

Smith is a shoe in for the national side for me - him, Welsby, and Williams will really compliment each other IMO. Had Lam not been so good this season he’d have made the Dream Team too if it was based on merit alone.
