Brian Smith-Referees boss

[stephenj]

i like him for the job! a mature head non news aligned he knows how much the fans dissect the refs performance!

[Hawkeye]

Suppose Rohan will pop up as ref's co-ordinator or as a video ref !

My only concern would be the majority on here using his appointment as an excuse when we don't perform.

[Chris]

Brian knows how many times we got dudded. I think this might be an OK move.

[Guest]

will he be using the gatorade bottles as a training tool?

[Guest]

Geesus, get your paranoia under control peeps. Smith's appointment as refs boss will not matter if we're good enough. The dogs were the second most penalised team last year and look where they got too.

Chook.

I disagree. 3 dodgy saints tries, and a dodgy forward pass ruling for us. That is a 4 try turnaround in a grand final.

On the bright side, Smith might finally get his chance to win a grand final.

[Darkone]

He wont trust the television

He will demand a cherry picker at every game....

I like the idea of a footyhead with a feel for rugby league getting the gig.

Finch had no idea and harrigan was an egomaniac.

The funny thing would be smithy working with guys like Jared Maxwell who pretty much shafted his team for the past 3 years.

Get the forward pass thing right and I will be happy.

[Waylander]

Simple fact is he surely couldn't be any worse than the last two. I'm not opposed to it.

He is perfect for the job I think he would clean up the wrestle, you cant go with another ref nothing will change

[stephenj]

smith likes the quick play the ball and open footy, that suits us very much, hes anti wrestle and owes news corp and the current refs nothing
