Quote imwakefieldtillidie="imwakefieldtillidie"I actually thought Smith was underrated for much of his first spell, and got a lot of unwarranted stick from fans. It wasn’t until he’d gone we realised what we had. His second spell was nothing special. The difference between the two for me was that whilst Smith had a fantastic rugby brain, he needed the players around him to play their part, whereas Brough could create for himself and win you a game on his own. I’ve always felt that fans have judged our half backs since by his standard, leaving us feeling let down because they’re not at that level.'"
I can't remember who half the other teams' half backs even were, but I just remember feeling at the time like we had one of, if not the best scrum half in the league when we had Brough.
