Pretty much nail on the head with both points IMO.

Is what Sam Burgess?

You need google translate



Smith was hardly in the same league as Gareth Ellis or Danny Brough and for us, just another steady player, one of the 8 or 10 players that come through the revolving door every season.

There are some here that seem to regard him as the new messiah, must be something to do with Christmas being round the corner ?

He plays for Hull now. We have replaced him.
What more is there to discuss?

Maybe just 3 more pages of car crazy and his illegible ramblings about him?

we are rugby legue fans some fans on here like lee smith same as i do if you are a fan as you think you are you must have players you like

Your not as daft as your posts make you out to be

surely

spent a short time at school when i felt like it

Edited for accuracy.

Are we really still arguing about Lee Smith?

He's a decent player with some good skills - but for whatever reason, he's no longer a Wakey player; maybe we should learn to move on, like he has?

not quite correct

no contract, on trial, not being paid by fc and will play as a trialist in our 3 pre season games

no guarantee fc will offer him a contract, if we do we will have to send 2 or 3 players out on loan, (which was already the plan)

Can't believe you need to be so OTT to make every point. We are RL fans not Daily Sport readers, we don't need a screaming headline to get what you are saying! You and Belly and co totally undermine yourselves - I just don't get it.

Anyway taking away the nonsense and hyperbole from your post there is in my humble opinion there is as ever some truth in what you say.

Lee Smith did OK first time in an OKish team - far from world class and as you say way off his early Leeds days - but then he'd clearly still be at Leeds if that early promise wasn't already fading. Second time he was our best three quarter but then that wasn't difficult was it.

The real point is that if our sport was vibrant like in Oz and NZ and our Academies were producing the players we were promised Smith would be a bush player by now or plying his trade in France. The fact that a club like Hull FC are willing to trial him is beyond me - especially when his reputation was built on speed - a gift he clearly no longer has. There should be loads of players ahead of Smith but sadly there aren't. It's an utter disgrace that Smith and and Lyne are still considered worthwhile options even with SL's poorest teams but with a rich club like Hull, jeez we have got it wrong.

I'd play Smith even now and I do think he's slow, past it and not got much ticker - that's how bad it is. I accept most SL coaches are to spineless or mindless to give youth a go but even taking that into account there is still a dire lack of talent at that level above journeyman and below superstar.

Finally I do hope that if your lad doesn't go as well at Cas as is hoped you will take it on the chin when there fans start talking about him like you do about Smith?

i know you won't agree but i think lyne will be good in 2016 just have to wait and see
