  • Would've made him shave it off turning up to pre season like that. Smith would be licking his lips

    • I don't think Smith would care either way as he is the current starter, just needs to do what he was doing and he starts.

  • The hair is a punishment for doing something wrong....other players have had the same over the last 12 months

    • It's for turning up late to training.

  • The making of TDS is he has to up his defensive physicality decision making and his service needs a shit load of work which is fine he's signed for the next 3 years.

    At the moment it's head up trying to make something happen on his own.Once he gets that comfort level with his halves and middles then you'll see better play from him on the team.

    The biggest reason I prefer Smith over him is workrate service and he leads our inside pressure which is so important.I also think Smith is alot more physical also.

    • Smith is a battering ram and TDS is finesse as a Hooker. It is actually a nice pairing as they are both different styles of Hooker. 

      • Agree LB, it's actually great that we have 2 different hookers that provide a bit of a point of a difference from each other for a change.

        • Yes to all that!

          • LB, Clint, Pops. I’m also on the “both are great to have” bus, and they complement each other. My only question mark is the long-term sustainability of keeping both. TDS is tied up, but I'd say the club would be keen to extend Ryley before Nov 1st 2026 when he can talk to other clubs. Let's hope we can keep them both happy.

"Well Ryles was adament, even after Smith debuted that he wanted a 2nd Hooker. Tried to get Brailey for a while.
He must see Smith as something else. But i do not see him signing Da Silva on decent coin and for so many years just to be a 14 or…"
