Yeah....right:lol:
That's why he was QLD's best and did wonders for Aus last year.

I like Cam Smith...perhaps the joke was in bad taste but he probably wasn't exactly in a thought provoked mood...

Smith has never played in a bad team.

he has always played in the best team.

lets see how he looks carrying blokes.

put him in a struggling team and see how he goes - only then can he be judged for his own worth.

Smith has walked right into a great team which has become the dominant team in the competition. In his four full seasons of first-grade the Storm have been 6th at worst, and minor premiers twice.

I'd be very interested to see how Smith played if he was ever under the pump.

Who better than you to attest to that.

lol I forgot my name on here was camsmith. It's my actual name, its not like he's my favourite player or my user name is named after him.

He is a good bloke though, most Cam Smith's are :D

Indeed. The mark of the truly great player is how they handle playing in a sh*thouse team. Look at the way Andrew Johns dragged the Knights kicking and screaming out of that woeful beginning to 2005.

Did you consider that perhaps the reason Melbourne have been so consistent over the past few years is that they have a player like Cameron Smith in there leading the helm?

I nominate the Warriors for this test

Are you impying that Melbourne are a one man team?

They've got the most star-studded line-up in the competition.

What a ridiculous theory. Going by that we can say Meninga, Gasnier, Beetson, Tallis, Langer, etc, etc ,etc ,etc are all over-rated as they had the "misfortune" of playing in good teams there whole careers.

If you need a good player to play in a bad team to tell how good they are then your not much of a judge.

Cams probing and organising out of dummy-half is better then any hooker Ive seen.

Behind a dominant pack that's always going forward and giving him lots of time and space.

That's just gold.

People accused us last year of having one of the smallest and softest packs going around.

Funnily enough, Smith won the DM that year. :lol:

LOL@jealous Newcastle fans.
Smith is the powerhouse behind the Melbourne Storm.

Look as this,I hate Melbourne and even I can see they struggled significantly without him - Just have a look at how they did when he was injured.
