Smith needs to learn how to move forward with the ball before he gets back in The S first 17.

It'll be interesting to see how Moore develops given that Brown is an ex-hooker. Noble did wonders with Lowes so I'm hopeful that Brown can have a positive impact on him.

You mean Nobby did something right, once upon a time???

I'm not sure what this season will bring, but from what i've seen of the two, Smith would definatley be my choice over Moore. A more consistant player all round and a much tougher defender.

No hooker in the world can match KC's physical presence and impact in defence.

Smith's kicking game from dummy half would give us an extra dimension though.

Moore doesn't have a shabby kicking game though, Smith just doesn't run with the ball in hand enough to be playing at hooker.

Both valid points, but like I say, my opinion is that Smith is currently a much better bet.
