| Have all their seasons ended, have they left, are they suspended, injured etc.
Will any suddenly have disciplinary sorted? Anyone any clues. I know Hall is a waster but curious about the others.

| Speaking to Craig Hall last Monday, he is recovering from TWO groin operations plus a double hernia operation, he also said he will definitely be here next year.

| if the coach was a people manager and not regime man then smith and locke would be playing this weekend (btw our only chance to win) - look at how many players he has fallen out with over the years!! Did they take his car for fun or to get back at him???
He once in a grand final (dragons) played the only international in the side off the bench! the guy has no clue how to get snr players playing for him he is great with younger kids but can not earn the respect of the older brigade- mainly cause he doesn't give them any.... its the reason why his premierships at all levels of the game are 0.
we were doomed to fail at the appointment.

Why do people still think it was BS car and think they know what goes on inside of the club regarding coaches and players

It's not a matter of an inquiry for me.
If his head isn't right we can't afford to have him on the field

Coach is probably against so called professional sportsmen drink driving. Tim Smith has let club down with his behaviour. Having lost a close friend who was knocked down & killed by a drink driver I have no sympathy for him.

Alot of the senior players don't deserve the coaches respect and have been playing on past achievements. On paper good team on grass crap. BS is a very good coach.

| I'd forget about Locke and T.Smith. Locke's been released and T. Smith isn't in contention at all.

Has he got Alzheimer's or early onset of senile dementia?
His skills and technique knowledge hasn't suddenly disappeared and his man management which was second to no one during his years over here with Hull and Bradford hasn't just evaporated.
Are you one of those Rugby League experts that don't rate Brian Smith because he's never won a Grand Final, do you realise how good you have to be just to make the Semi's in the NRL let alone get to the final and win it!

| Not a rugby expert at all just a die hard Wakefield fan concerned about my club. You can only judge by his results, signings etc. I was over the moon driving home from Newcastle even after just being walloped by Cas due to the news we had just signed him. I really thought we had turned the corner. However after one good result Hull at home we seem to have gone back to where we were. The players are not motivated, the levels of fitness do not appear to have improved. It was only through the misdemeanors of the regular team that the young home grown talent got a game. The signings Under Smith have been disappointing. The signing of Simon Grix and then stating he would not play was strange at least. I thought one thing that he would bring in would be professionalism, however we have had 5 players involved in alcohol related incidents in his short time.
He seems a really decent chap and no one can deny what he has achieved but maybe has just been out of the game too long.

can't coach what's not there! lousy grammar but you know what I mean. Some of the players are simply not up to it.

| The media summary says he's been sacked because he didn't even turn up to the internal investigation.
There is only so much rope you can give someone.

| Someone on facebook has said Lee Smith has signed for Bradford for next year, I presume if they get promoted? hence Brian Smith decided a few weeks ago not to pick him? #rumours..
