throw in Mackie, Kersten who weighs 210lbs (sigh, I like the kid but he needs to stop pulling out of contests), Motlop and now Smith and we have quite a few uncontested sea gull-types which would really have the opposition licking their fat lips.
Smedts is hardly a softie either, it's just that he lacks any awareness whatsoever and as a consequence, butchers the ball, gets pinged for holding the ball & basically stinks it up a couple levels higher than what Kane Tenace once did.
