Great might be a bit of a strong word.
Smid is a medicore bottom pairing guy getting paid at market rates. I think it was a fine addition for a defensive starving team, and we didn't lose anything we are likely to regret long term. It was a minor transaction that fit the need of both teams, the way trade are supposed to work.
