Cameron Smith is the greatest rugby league player ever.

Remember the furore from Saints fans because he reneged on a deal LOL.

It was like they'd missed out on Tedesco.

6 weeks ago Thurston was the GOAT. Now Smith is the GOAT. This time next year Kyle Lovett will be the best ever.

I remember a few years ago they flip flopped on the GOAT saying it was Slater then it was someone else. As Alwaysgreen said earlier in this thread, the GOAT is an overrated statement.

Cam Smith is the Michael Schumacher of Rugby League...sets records but a grub and a cheat who deserves to be remembered as one.

Smith has had the best career. Always had a great team around him, never injured, allowed to get away with murder by the refs.

Doesn't make him the best player.

You f**kers would kill for him in your side.

Nah, just his filing cabinets.

What a ridiculous exaggeration. Lovett will be nowhere near GOAT next year.

Clearly Munster next year, Lovett the year after.

We'll take that into consideration . . . in the meantime, Hail Smithy, get well Michael

What it is that irks me (and so many others) about Captain Cleanskin is this...

Let's play hypothetical for a moment. Let's suppose that everything about Cameron Smith the player and the man is identical- EXCEPT that he was born, raised and played his junior RL in Lithgow instead of Logan, and is therefore a NSW player:

^ This would be the sentiment of at least 80% of League fans, with a few who supported his NRL club
still supporting him (similar to the Roosters fans who still defend Pearce at Origin time).

But instead, this sentiment is far more common than it deserves to be:

If only the pic of him in blue was real

Put him in the Knights in the last few years and he mighn't be as regarded as he is today. Think yourself lucky.

Heil dah fuhrer Cam Smith and his Gestapo chief Schumacher.

In all seriousness though #keepfightingmichael

I might have a great dislike of certain sportsmen and how they approach their craft, but I wouldn't wish injury on them...

It's all fun ol' mate, Pedge is only pretending to be a f**kwit . . . you just got sucked in

Dunno about that...
All those 'quotes' you have put on that first photo IS a representation of around 80%. We storm fans see pretty much the exact same thing quite often. Every social media post from news outlets with Cam Smith involved is non stop.

Personally it doesn't bother me so much, but to pretend that the majority of people like him is off the mark.

I rate Lockyer a lot but he played for the strongest club in the NRL who had won plenty of premierships before him and came into a side full of stars.
Johns and Thurston delivered maiden premierships to crazy heartlands, that level of pressure is something else entirely.

You can add Ricky Stuart, Greg Alexander, Allan Langer, James Maloney (five eighth I know but he was massive last year) and Sterlo to the list as well.

Gareth Ellis just played his 450th game this weekend!

Whose played the most ever games?

Beaver played over 450 games I think
