Given that we are short on depth in the backline, why did we release Smith, when we could’ve kept him for 2021 and then he could go to storm in 2022 and addo Carr comes in.
Hes actually playing really well and playing in the centres lol
You spelt wah wah wah wrong

I reserve the right to dwell on things I can't change. If either my mum or dad had married into money my life might be much better today than it is. Failing that at least my mum could have married a guy that was equipped like a pornstar. The only way I can give a woman 9 inches is to have three roots.
















And I was only kidding about taking three roots to give 9 inches, it takes six.
I love you

Nasheed here,
We absolutely should have retained him.
But Aj so I’m sick of players abandoning teams.
Build character and get real satisfaction from going from zero to hero kind of like Gallen did

The issue for me is not why we got rid of him because he is average at best. But what did we get from Melbourne in return. Seems like every other club plays hardball with their players except us.

Because he was a lazy fuck
It’s not hard scoring tries in a Storm backline and they were playing a very weak Warriors outfit last night.

R Smith hasn’t been spectacular in the Storm, just doing a centre’s job.

Storm system can make improve average players & can also make an average player look great. Many instances of great players leaving the Melbourne system & becoming an average FG player elsewhere. E.g. Croft, Proctor, & of course Stimson.

“Croft” and “great”, not 2 words I expected to ever see in the same sentence.

W O W. Next time I go out for a night on the town I'll take my tape measures along. I didn't know women were into tape measures and I already have three. Thanks for the advice Dinkum.
Why do do people advertise this perverse porn like shit, it will influence the young and the simple.
Real people, ie. married couples man and woman have sex in bed inside 4 walls with love for each other not lust.

He played well for us, in patches; but we didn't have the same team as the Storm.

I literally saw Storm supporters on reddit saying he was a dud signing a few days ago. One good game doesn't make him a spectacular player.

Why did we let him go?

Because you take away that St George game from 2 years ago, and he was an average player with speed, who was prone to the odd brainsnap (headbutt, lashing out etc).

Ummmm.....because he's shithouse. In a very good team he can do a job (just like Brenko Lee did) but in a shit team he doesn't stand out (like Staggs does for the Broncos).

Oh and I forgot to mention he's lazy.
