But as he said it out loud to media on Thursday, even he had to laugh. Smith is 35 and just 16 games from playing his 400th NRL game. No one has ever reached that milestone, and possibly no one will match it, either. <<<<<<<snip>>>>>>> "If that means you play for less than you could possibly get elsewhere then that's what you do – it's not about being selfish and some people can be at times but at this organisation it is all about being selfless and having players around you that let you compete." Smith is last man standing at Storm from that generation and while he is still hurting after last season's grand final loss to the Roosters, he is more mindful of his younger teammates who lost their first decider. Smith has won four grand finals and lost three but still wants more. He sees plenty of improvement in his side. ................................................................................................ The right stuff... for Our young Demons outfit to adopt as we start to make some headway into topline footy, since many long years at the bottom of the heap. I hope our young leaders are taking close note of the Melbourne Storm, and their winning culture.
