I'd agree with Millard and Withers, but how can you say that Hodgson would be a step back, when we don't even have a good full-back in the reserves that's anywhere near close to breaking into the first team? :conf:God posted:
Hodgeson is a step back in player development at Wigan IMO as was Millard And Withers.
If he deserved a place on loyalty alone I would be playingGod posted:
I would thought waiting in the reserves for 2 years is just deserved for a first team place.And at one point he thought he would never play for Wigan and considered joining the army.
Hes not even classed as a youngster as hes now 23.He deserves his place on loyalty alone IMO.

Think your list stretches back a bit :eh:God posted:
Lockers
Hansen
Hock (Exept last season)
Ashton (Exept last season)
Radlinski
Steven Wild
Lee Gilmour
Paul Johnson
Andy Farrell
Dennis Betts
To name a few in the Super League era.
Not to mention the awful over seas players we have bought and i firmly belive that Hodgeson will be included in the bad overseas buys on high wages catagory.
I just hope we sign Cooper so Hodgeson wont turn up because of salary cap restraints.Now Cooper is WORLD class.
Think we as fans very rarely know what goes on and sometimes its for the best , we think of these lads as heroes and some would not live up to itGod posted:
Interesting.We will never know

I must appologise but your not going to convince me.Ive seen Hodgson and i dont rate him.Hes like a poor mans Brisco now with lack of pace.I don't know where you have seen Hodgson, but I have footage from the NRL and he is certainly not slow, in fact he is bloody quick, he also won the NRL full back of the year in 1996.
Hes injury prone and IMO not a good player.
We will be 100 times better off with Matt Cooper.And ive said in the past he is WORLD CLASS.
