Smith has been given about 55 mins in his first 2 games, that could easily be pushed out to about 60 - 65.. He starts then gets a break about 10 before half-time. I'd rather his replacement have fresh legs at that time of the game than Hopgood who's been busting his balls for 30 mins.

"Size. Speed. Power. Commitment. We were missing all four. Get rid of Tedesco, To'o, Staggs, Cleary, Robson, Lucas, Yeo (plodder at this level) and Barnett (at an absolute minimum). Daley's selections and coaching style are deplorable. How did he…"

Maybe Ryles should train up one of the forwards to give Smith a rest at dummy half, possibly Doorey?
Why waste time and resources for that though? Hopgood can do it and is in the team everyweek.

I do think 4 forwards on the bench will help
