Warrington coach Tony Smith has revealed that he is very proud of the culture and ethos that has grown at the club during his time in charge.

The Australian is now entering his seventh season in charge of the Wolves, after being appointed as coach in March 2009.

As well as winning three Challenge Cups and a League Leaders Shield, Smith has also steered Warrington to two losing Grand Finals.

“We’ve created a terrific culture here where we’re trying to improve as a club on and off the field and I think we’ve made some great inroads in that over the years,” he told BBC Radio Merseyside.

“There is plenty more to go and I’m enjoying it. I’d like to think we’ve progressed as a club to become one of the consistent performers of the competition for the last few years, that is what you’re after.

“We’ve fallen short in a couple of the big ones but that is still there for us to play for and work towards, so there is still a lot to achieve.

“I’ve enjoyed each and every moment of it. It hasn’t all gone our way the whole time, by any means, but that’s not how we assess ourselves here.”
