New deal and number 13 shirt for Smith. Very well deserved

Agreed and at 24 still has his best years in front of him.

Good news. Hopefully we will see more consistency from him in 2023.

Hopefully not asked to play halfback too often in the future. Hats off to him, he thrived under Smith, who despite being an Aussie seems to value a ball-handling forward.

Fully deserved this deal for me he's a classy player and will only get better i think. Him & Oledzki are leaders of our pack now could see one of them being awarded capacity in not too distant future.

Deserved.

Great news for us too

Good the lad now needs to make the 13 shirt his for the next 5 years

Looked really good since smith came in, hopefully now playing the role and game that suits him. 3 years seems long though after one half a good season.we have been stung by these longer deals recently.

Started last season really poorly and didn't seem to be living to his potential, but fair play to him, really turned his season around once Rohan came on board. Hope he keeps it up and lives up to his potential.

Good news, looked hugely improved under Smith. Has so much raw talent imo, has the skills to be one of the best 13's in SL.

I'm excited to see what the younger players can do in a more balanced team,preseason training for current position etc etc.

Newman and Holroyd included, both had bad injuries/ ban that kept them out for long periods

I think this season could be the year he really starts to fulfil his potential. If he can stay injury free and improve his conditioning, he could force his way into the England conversation. People talk about Knowles and Smithies, but Smith is levels above in terms of skills.
