I thought so too but Twomey mentioned the other day his was considered your half back maybe midfielder and I remember reading on here that someone at the club also thinks so. I know it's grain of salt stuff but it still scares me which is why I want the out and out mid in Walsh.I would have thought that Smith was comfortably in the same conversation as some or all of them from last year, and arguably better than Brayshaw, who was picked first of that lot.
Been playing injured for a big chunk of this year, yet still performed very well. He's not widely considered in the mix to go top 4 or 5 in this stronger draft for no reason.
