Brandon Smith

I always wonder why grown adults feel like they need to be man managed.

I also think it's a massive concern when a spine player thinks their role is over complicated.. you're there as a primary decision maker that's not a simple task... Although in fairness I have always thought he's a better 13 than he ever was a 9 so maybe he can't be blamed for being put into the role.

Most of these guys are kids in adult bodies. They've never really grown up, footy is all they know.

Yeah, Flanno was coaching in our lower grades and got punted at the same time as Sticky. I reckon he thought was a chance at the top job. He was very bitter towards us for a long time after.

From what I understand he was the one who leaked the Bennett signing to the media in 2006. Was sent packing….no wonder he hates us

We will not regret letting him go - still running his mouth on podcasts

This time did one with Paul Kent.

In summary has said how much more comfortable and happier he is at Souths due to Wayne(and Bellamy) being man managers.
Said Robbo is a tactical genius but overcomplicated his role (Cheese then admitted that he never actually plays to a game plan and only relies on instinct)

Then took it a step further and said that Robbo is a Brian Smith clone, which i got a chuckle out of....

Pppftttttt, how the f*ck would Cheese actually know whether Robbo is a Brian Smith clone or not the idiot ? Smith coached the Chooks only for 3x years in 2010, 2011 and 2012 when Cheese was a young boy (teenager) across the ditch. That dumb ass knows jack shit and is running his mouth based off the crap what other people have been saying (irrespective if it's true or not).

At least come up with stuff based on your personal views and don't just repeat the crap that others say you drop-kick.

What would this idiot know about Brian Smith anyway? Smithy gets undeserved hate for never winning premierships in Australia but he was a brilliant coach that unfortunately got stung by a Parra choke job in 2001 but those Dragons teams he had in the mid 90s punched well above their weight there's no shame in losing grand finals to the Broncos who would have had a dozen origin players in their squad when the Dragons would've only had Mackay and maybe Coyne debuted before 1995 that's it.

Go through those Dragons lineups for the grand finals then go through the Broncos, Raiders, Sea Eagles and Bulldogs lineups Smithy did great with the Dragons and then dad's army Parra

2010 was one of my favourite seasons to experience live when that team clicked and went on their multiple 5 game winning streaks they were awesome to watch and it was down to Smith, it all fell apart in 2011 sadly.

Well said. I was a big Smithy fan.

What a great clone and very complementary of Brian Smith as Robbo has three premierships.

How would Brandon Smith know Robbo is a clone of Brian Smith? He’s never been coached by Smith and I doubt he’s ever even met him.

2010 GF - even after the Morris "try" was given early when his foot was over the crowd fence, we would still have gone to half time with a handy lead were it not for a phantom forward pass call on a legitimate roosters try in the corner just before the break. And the calls kept being pulled out of their arses to screw us.

So Smith can be considered unlucky not to have picked up a GF win right there.

Always rated Smithy as the most underrated Coach in the business. Got 4 (at least) clubs across two continents to the big dance . That's a hell of an achievement when you think of it. As I always say, it's much harder to make a GF than it is to win it. Could Robbo have done that? Remember he had some pretty decent rosters for his flags.

In those GF's he came up against teams that were much higher rated (Broncos 92 & 93 was basically the QLD & Australian team) and the Steelers were stacked in 2010. Newcastle had Andrew Johns at his peak in 2001.

Cheese, how about acknowledging that you did SFA while at the Roosters????
