Morgan Smithies

Post by josie andrews »

Just the 72 tackles from @morgan_smithies last night. Anyone know what the @SuperLeague record is? Surely it's a new @WiganWarriorsRL record?

What an incredible performance! This kid is still only 18!!
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

He's a tackling machine. Going to be a legend at the club.

Footballers spend 90 minutes pretending they're injured. Rugby League players spend 80 minutes pretending they're not.

I don't think he played the full 80 mins either.
Pretty sure I heard him announced and replacing someone going off on interchange.
That's an incredible game from an 18 year old.

Presuming he stays at the club long enough and doesn't fancy the lifestyle in Australia's capital.
