Roosters Dilemma

With Brian Smith officially the new Roosters coach for the 2010 season, many of the current players are concerned that he will repeat what was done at the Knights and have a mass player clean out.  Reynoldson, who was let go by the Smith in very debatable circumstances was quoted saying "I would trust my wife with Shane Warne more than I would trust Brian Smith."  

Although Smith has said there won't be a mass cleanout, I believe there might be and players that should watch out are those like Willy Mason, Setimata Sa, and Iosia Soliola.  These are the players, in my opinion, that are not playing "badly" but are not doing anything spectacular.  

Also a concern to Smith is the growing injury list.  So far this season the injury toll includes: 

Fitzgibbon - cheekbone

J. Aubusson - knee

O'mealy - hand

Anasta - ankle

Cherrington - leg

Kennedy - knee

Symonds - shoulder

Not to mention Nate Myles who is still suspended after a drunken Terrigal incident. 

Brian Smith has some important decisions to make regarding who to stick by and who to keep however I am positive all his decisions will be in the best interests of the club and rebuilding it to bring it back to its glory days.
