[QUOTE="Flutterby, post: 2279554, member: 1853"] That's pretty much it Matt. The facts are Smith did not come back to Australia and seek a start with an NRL club. He sought out a start with a Q Cup club to use this year as a platform to get an NRL contract next year. The Broncos had no role in Smith coming to Easts. After seeing his early pre-season training form, the Broncos asked Easts if they would mind having him train with the Broncos senior team for the post-Christmas pre-season - Easts agreed. Smith showed outstanding form and was granted a spot in the trial teams in which he played awesome as well - the Broncos then chose to dual register him. BUT his primary contract is with Easts - they are the ones that gave him his lifeline and are the ones that need to be compensated. From what I know Easts are seeking another Broncos contracted player to be allocated. On the subject of Hunt vs Smith. I am actually a fan of both (although I am hesitant about how Smith will go at the top level second time around) and would love for the Broncos to be able to keep both. However the reality is that we were never going to be able to keep both and I think Hunt provides a better long term proposition. Given his experience Smith is more ready NOW to play NRL, but there is no spot for him NOW at the Broncos. Hunt is being developed to be fully ready when Locky retires. However that will be my last comment on the Hunt/Smith discussion, as I have made my views well known in a few topics now. [/QUOTE]
