With the old brigade of Ray Price, Brett Kenny, possibly Peter Sterling, etc coming back in fore and Paul Osborne on side, Tim Smith will more than likely be brought back under their wings. Don't be surprised the old boys will have something to do with influencing DA, particularly PO, in resigning Tim. Tim Smith was too easily led/influenced by the heavy drink squad. Now this negative heavy-drink influence has gone.
Free of alcohol, nurtured by true-loving wise men and women like PO, with a strong work hard play smart, be positive ethic, Timmy will be instrumental in winning a few premierships for the eels in this family environment. He knows where the seagulls are, where the try line is, has great vision all over the park and has the natural skill to dismantle any defence.
Timmy could be the missing link for the eels to get back into the top 4 next year, if not win the premiership as well.
I like Timmy and so does Jack and many others behind the scene. Timmy has a very good heart. He just needed time to sort his head out. The infrastructure (the nurturing environment) is now quickly growing into place. This can only help Timmy blossom. No one has seen the best in Timmy yet. Kris Keating, Daniel Mortimer, Nathan Hindmarsh, Jarred Hayne, Kristian Inu, Mateo & others will all benefit tremendously from Timmy on the park. Look at late 2007.
