Matty Smith Joins Widnes

Post by josie andrews »

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

Played a blinder for us in many games, especially that Grand Final, then not so good in other games.

Allways imo, gave his best and with an extra yard of pace could have been one of the best.

Agreed. Smith was not as bad as many make out.
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

Saints and Cats knew what he'd done at Wigan when they signed him.

Go figure.

Something has clearly gone wrong for the guy since he left Wigan,the broken leg and bad eye injury won’t have helped,while never the quickest he looked ponderously slow while with wire last season.

Good player and Wigan has their money’s worth out of him but maybe it’s time to hang the boots up?
