Apparently if smith plays on next year it’ll be at half so they have a spot for grant next year

BSmith will average at least 60 at hooker, possibly a lot more. Depends how long Munster is out. With Bellamy, four week injuries often become one week and vice versa.

Scritta to BS9 for my 4th trade

I can’t believe I only used 3 trades! I better use two next week then. I have gone Moses to Flanno so apologies in advance for breaking him. I was considering DCE instead so no doubt DCE raises the bat!

Well that's annoying - was set on bringing in Smithy but a move to half would surely lower his tackle count. Kick metres would be up but that's it really

Yeah defo worth a look in aye? He's played one game there scoring 29 in 58 - but that was pre-glow-up in 2018. Could be worth a punt.

Has kicked ass playing 9 for NZ

Oh for sure. Anyone looking to bring him in following C.Smith's move to halfback? Or are we all set on our trades?

It's eye-test really, rather than one game in 2018. Also from memory his stats at hooker in internationals are insane.

Having said that, could easily wait a week and flip to him from Lucy, attacking points will be harder against the Roosters.

If Smith averages 60 until Munster returns (3 weeks) Smith should be 700k+ with a 150k+ gain. Would be a great stepping stone to Moses/Twal by that time

Depends on B Smith happy to stay at 2RF. Grant won’t be satisfied coming off the bench.

Just short of Paix to Smith so going Scrichton to Smith this week. Feel it’s this week or never as will
Only get 3 weeks out of it. Hope a cow turns up next week for a nice cash out to afford teddy.

Exactly... 50 tackles, a few TB’s around the ruck. Laughing!

Smith never played over 60 minutes for Storm, that correct?

Played the full 80 at international level

What a spanner in the works. This last minute trade thing always fucks me up.

Wouldn't surprise me to see Jacks on the bench. Maybe Smith spells Smith?

God I hope so as I only have 11!
