He started running the ball at the line and was trying all he could, those are good signs for a player who hasn't had much game time due to his injuries. Trent is improving every week and need his team mates to be on par with him when he does things so we can actually score/create moments to.Sharpy, I suggest you stop trolling and watch the match again.
Hodko was one of our best. Eastwood, Barba, Hodkinson were our best last night.
His kicking game was solid and creative. In a side which was pretty pathetic, I thought he really tried to stand up last night. He made a couple of last ditch tackles to save Tony Williams' arse, made a couple of linebreaks and had another good game.
With Tony Williams, Hodko tried realy hard to give him a few shorts balls last night, but Williams just cannot run onto them. He is a pathetic player. One of our worst signings in a number of years.
It was just not our night, but you cannot blame Trent for the loss. As I said before, he was one of our best.
Was it done on tackle 2 though if so we should of held the ball for a quick play the ball, we had the Roosters on their toes and could of possibly scored with our gained meters and momentum.When Trent put in the chip kick for Barba and Barba got it if he looked to his left it was Trent unmarked and I think he would of had the pace for the last 25m or so as there was not anyone in sight.
Having two five-eighths made us kings with our running game and running attack but that isn't enough for this year sadly.Bite my head off but Keating suited the team last year. A lot of our back lines plays involved him and the way he moved the ball on the angle. We are terrible at it now, 5-6 tries this year off those plays.
Hodko is a very strong defender, only time I saw him struggle was when that bull Frank Paul ran at him with all he had.Another thing to note was he had to switch to the right hand side with Romelo coming in. I thought he handled the switch quite well considering.
Exactly, last year is last year. 2013 is a new year, and we saw in the first 6 rounds why we needed Hodkinson to come in. Teams are reading our plays better this year.. Keating is a rubbish halfback, and this year, we cannot afford to play with two 5/8ths.Bite my head off but Keating suited the team last year.

yeah we had opportunities in the game but poor execution once again hurt us. how bad did tank feel after the knock on call went against him when he was after a penalty on the 2nd tackle 15mtrs out from their line.Was it done on tackle 2 though if so we should of held the ball for a quick play the ball, we had the Roosters on their toes and could of possibly scored with our gained meters and momentum.
That was so iffy man, SBW was allowed to lay there no matter what. I know Frank tried to milk it but he had the right to with a player laying around his feet/legs doing nothing to move out of the way or slow the play the ball down SBW got away with it really.yeah we had opportunities in the game but poor execution once again hurt us. how bad did tank feel after the knock on call went against him when he was after a penalty on the 2nd tackle 15mtrs out from their line.
It's hard to have a running game when our forwards don't offload! What is it this year why we don't offload anymore? Too much one up stuff all the time and its been read too easily. Is Des keeping something up his sleeve until later in the season.Having two five-eighths made us kings with our running game and running attack but that isn't enough for this year sadly.
We needed a try against the Roosters.I'm a big fan of Hodkinson, but I've noticed in every game we've lost he seems to take a back seat in the game.
He didn't play good or bad last night, but it's mainly because he didn't put himself in a position to make a wrong/right decision.
I said long ago he is going to sign a two year deal.In today's RLW.
The club is in negotiations to extend his contract.
