Never had the problem, seen plenty with it though lol

How much? $1m+?

That’s exactly what I heard.
As said though, I don’t want to hot shot, or spread shot that is just made up, it’s what I was actually told and this guy does get good goss.

I personally don’t think he’ll leave, not next year anyway.

2 of the biggest personalities in the NRL. I'd love the cheese.

Same, he is a must get..yes we know he is not the BEST 9 obviously but all round is the best option and is available.Im certain he would rip it up at the Dogs and fit our club like a glove

 

[Master Coach]

B. Smith is fat and slow with shocking vision/passing game. I know we are desperate for a world class 9 but lets be honest he isn't one otherwise the storm would of let go grant.
As much as it kills me, we need to be patient and see what is out there any other potential players unfortunately not many crafty 9s in the nrl atm

 

[Bulldogs09]

B Smith kills it for nz at 9 and against Australia ffs not some garbage rep team. Most important position we need quality in asap. He’s the best option by a long way.

After missing Leinu I hope we land b Smith and staggs or Crichton. Leaves one big prop we need to land. Not sure who but someone will pop up.

fisher Harris/ Nelson someone like this would be ideal!

Guler/Collins/tamakize or whatever at storm could be a decent cheaper option too.

Napa hoppa jmk Lewis out then whoever in meaney britt c Smith Katoa Crichton etc to go Bring in some min wages replacement to make it work $ wise

Somehow I think the Nz test hooker might be world class

 

[Master Coach]

Who else do NZ have lol issac luke come on bro

 

[Bulldogs09]

By that logic rts is crap. Who else do they have for fullback?

 

[Alan79]

29 pages of discussion on a potential recruit who has given no indication of where he wants to go just feels like massive overkill.

He's been a very good backup hooker at a club that has a well established structure, quality in key positions and a winning culture built on the back of an enviable spine. But the jury is still out on how good he can be without a lot of other things being in his favour wherever he signs. He did have a brilliant game for NZ. But again that's with a good roster around him. But for Melbourne it seems that he's still going to be the backup hooker to Grant IF Cam Smith isn't there next year.

I understand that people want to improve the quality of our dummy half. But this is a bloody long winded discussion on a topic with no resolution.

Jahrome Hughes was the back up for BSmith as Kiwi hooker, and is a pretty handy player.

Go Dogs

they have more options at fullback

 

[Master Coach]

Plenty of options at the back - clokstad, abu samra to name a few
