Todate I have been a critic of Matt Smith that said his performance today and against Gloucester have been a revelation and he has impressed me big time :smt054

Me too, Matt Smith has raised his game. I think that Twelvetrees should be the bench replacement for Flood if required playing Manu and Smith in the centre,

Have also been a critic of Matt Smith in the past, but he really is performing very well at present. Actually must be one of first names on team sheet for Cockers on current form.

Players like Smith are the reason we are a succesful club, we need more "Club" players as we have let some go the last few seasons (Vesty, Brett Deacon etc), we are a top side by the quality of the squad & the hsitory of some of our players have with the club, Smith would play anywhere for us & the shirt & that can be worth far more than International Caps.

I think he always was one of the first names on the team sheet, but now he truly deserves it the way he's playing at present.
Opportunities always look bigger going than coming.

Not exactly setting the world on fire though are they Vesty or Deacon. Both not 1st choice at their clubs, and in my opinion are not as good as the players that took their places at Tigers.

I'd rather have Vesty than Staunton in the squad & the fact we haven't confuses me.

Deacon never ever let us down, much like his older brother, he would be more use to our sqaud than Pienaar.
