I don't recall BAD saying that he won't make it as a footballer because of it
There's a difference in saying a kid has had a bad game (and Wally had some bad ones last year, pointed out fairly by Woof posters) and that an 18 year old who carved it up as a junior won't make it as a footballer.
I dare say anyone who wrote him off last year is happy with his 2012 form so the point may be moot anyway.

I believe Mofra has answered for me.
You really didn't like my comment on his one disposal and 4 tackles. Surely one can make a comment on a game
FYI, I like Smith he has guts and determination and I believe he will make it.
I will never ever bag a young kid on our list (or any list) and have stuck up for many over the years. Sometimes I was wrong, like I thought Stack might make it, but I believe in giving them a go before severe criticism is made.

And you thought picking up Barry Hall was a bad mistake.
