Eels show interest in Jason Smith

[jayman]

How the hell is he not suited to our style of play?

Seems one person said we need a running 5/8 and everyone ran with it.

Jason Smith is a cool, experienced head in pressure situations....Tim Smith could learn heaps off him in that regard.

Jason Smith is still one of the best ball players in the comp- he would give us another ball playing option again taking a stack of pressure off Timmy. Tim Smith would learn more in one season off Jason Smith than he'd ever learn off John Morris.

why do halves have to have contrasting styles to be compatible? He would be a massive signing for us for a year.....and we'd have the money to replace him with a 5/8th on the market for 2008. He's easily the best 5/8 unsigned at the moment.

exactly.. look i was unhappy that we didnt keep morris.. but if we had to pick between morris and smith.. smith hands down wins all the time... our backs would be getting some really quality ball... imagine tahu and benny feeding of jasons passing game...
