I always thought Smith was a fine hooker, probably the form hooker in the comp but I have always suspected him of being quite a dirty player also..and in last nites Origin 2 match he comfirmed it.
TV footage I saw showed him quite clearly involved in a two man tackle on a Blues forward in the later part of the first half..Smith then quite clearly proceeded to stretch down over the lower back of the Blues forward and grab a handful..a clear cut case of bag snatching and he should be condemned for it.
I will watch a replay of the game tonite and ascertain at what minute it was in the game for clarity.
He is a wonderful player Smith but that sort of conduct is unbecoming and like that Titans homo merely raises suspicion about a player.
The Blues forward chose not to react but was entitled to strike Smith in my opinion!
