    Time To Stop The Mind Game Changes Supercoach

    No I said Why he'd "never won a premiership" I used 2001 as an example, but generally Smith has chopped and changed teams throughout seasons, in 2001 he even handed over the coaching reins to his deputy in case he was ill during the finals series!!!! Like I said he over does it, in many areas...

    JM, you are dead set kidding if you believe that, White is miles in front of Wicks, if White is slow laterally, ask your mate Cross how slow Wicks is laterally, he'd know all about that after Sunday.

    Under fire: Knights fans unload on Danny Wicks

    No we're not about to play a grand final, yes we are desperately trying to make the eight, All the more reason to selecthe best 17 you've got, if you think Wicks is one of that 17 well good on you.

    What other stuff? I'm saying pick the best team available that doesn't include Wicks, Simple. Last week in a game we really needed to win Smith picked three guys coming back from injury All forwards, and one was Wicks. He dropped a guy who'd done the job well in the previous weeks, and was game...

    Muddling issues together is not what this is about. We want to make the eight. Experimenting with protege Wicks ? this isn't the time to do it. As for playing mind games, that can also have a very negative effect, texting players at all hours of the day and night can become very tiring, even for...

    Well good oh for Smith because anyone who rates Wicks over White at this stage and given our predicament re finals has rocks in their head, In other words given Whites efforts in his last few games, if you rate Wicks above him then you don't know what you're on about. We need wins from here on...

    Well I don't believe Danny Wicks is our future, regardless you pick the best available side, and like I said previously....

    Problem being if he has to step more than 500mm sideways to make it he doesn't! It takes him 5 mins to move sideways

    Yep bringing both them back might be something most coaches would do, but add Wicks in the mix and you have two reasonable players back from injury, and one dead set do nothing overweight nuffy also back from injury and that is too much to carry, even an "Ordinary" Matt White would have to...

    LOL at that "Named" side

    Smith is no different now from when the Knights beat his "Unbeatable" Eels side in 2001. He's too smart for his own good. All the stuff he's doing to the side now he's done for years with other teams.

    Wicks is sh!t and that wont change. Smiths on drugs naming him this week ahead of Taufua and White.

    Under fire: Knights fans unload on Danny Wicks

    Dropping White and replacing him with Wicks explains exactly why Smith has never coached a premiership side. He trys to outsmart himself. There is no way Wicks earnt that spot over White. Forget weather that would alter the result, think about the message it sends to the other players.

    On Wicks I can't agree. He was the same at the Dragons as he's been here. I don't see him changing at all. He is a defensive liabilty while ever he's on the field, and his workrate is abysmal.

    Tolar has not started in all 20 games, far from it, I don't have the stats but he's come off the bench plenty of tmes. He's no world beater but I'd have him in front of some of the blokes Smith has come up with this year.

    Today's Tactics

    You said Tolar has been non existant this year, That is crap, he's been the best forward on field in plenty of games. I reckon Tolar just might have had his averages over a few more games than Crossy as well. I'm not bagging him by the way I'm saying he has been ordinary for us when he's...

    That's bullsh!t and you know it. Like I said Cross (your best mate) has done nothing more than any of them this year.
