Agreed, pack (when all available) look like they could tear up a few teams.

Discipline is going to have to be spot on and there are a few in there that are accustomed to the 'ol red mist and brainfart.

I don't think Smith will be at risk at all this year. It feels like he - and some of the squad - were a bit complacent to be honest, treating the pre-season games as a bit of a mess about. If you do that you're always going to struggle against teams that have already upped their intensity. Smith looked really annoyed at the post match conference, and also a bit bemused (which is more worrying).

Hopefully this will jolt everyone into focusing on winning games rather than playing musical chairs with players.

I saw his demeanor during the press conference as a good sign. He clearly knows that things need to change quickly and whatever tonights plan was just didn't work.

It's better for him to start looking for solutions now rather than bury his head in the sand and convince himself that it was just bad luck, due to injuries, week 1 jitters or any other excuse.

He said as much that the problem was lack of intensity and intent. Doesn't matter what gameplan you have if the team collectively is off the pace. You're right in that it is fixable, but the Hull game is really shaping up as important to get back on track as Sts the week after is a likely loss.

Yeh it's a bad loss, but it's about how we react to it.
Smith comes across as taking it on the chin and then coming up with a plan to get it right.
I think he takes losses as learnings.
In the way that many other coaches look absolutely clueless when things are going wrong - Agar, Lam, Cunningham etc...
I like how he handles defeats.
No way is he first to get sacked.

Warrington will undoubtedly be top 3 - they should be given the money they've spent. And they look to have spent it well.
We're still only 5th or 6th I reckon.
Big game against Hull, but we need to get it right.
