News Canterbury Bulldogs confirm big opportunity for former Hull FC halfback but it’ll be tough for former Wests Tigers star

[Bulldogsteve]

He's off the cuff which worked then with talented and experienced players around him, but Hodgkinson was still at 7 managing the game which allowed for the chaos. He can't be our game managing half.

hodgkinson was the most over rated 7 i have ever seen. He touched the barely twice in a set of 6, thats not controlling a team. Alot of time he didnt touch it until he kicked on last.

Injuries hampered him. I do believe that style of play had a lot to do with Hasler though.

If this bloke sees a minute of FG next year we will be in trouble.

If he sees a minute I’ll give it away

The team still played better when he was there compared to when he was out. He and Ennis brought a calmness onto the field.

You are so right, in one State game Reynolds made up his mind to pass but he had no support but passed it anyway to nobody, he was/is cringeworthy at times but can't fault his passion. PS up the mighty Mo

If he also had a micro brewers beard then he would look like one of the bananas in pyjamas.

He has got to be a better option at half than we have now… we still need a half but happy to have him dagging around

We're pretty thin in the halves with BBO injured and Wakeham gone. We wouldn't need much to go wrong for Reynolds to be in the calculations

Where has Wakeham gone to?

 

[D0GMATIC]

Where has Wakeham gone to?

Not sure, if he was being re-signed,We would have heard about it by now

 

[Jebbundy]

Any club he’s been at he’s not taken them to success, it’s nice to see him back as he Loves the club, but he was well past it when he left the first time. He never had a great kicking game, lots of brain snaps, tripping, every yr he’d say he’d get better. The speed of the game now I’m sure he’d just be full of penalties. Give him the yellow shirt and run the water, thanks for the memories but let’s leave them there.

Where has Wakeham gone to?

UK contract. Not sure who with.

 

[Cartel]

UK contract. Not sure who with.

That will do him a world of good

Well said I've said similar before on here too.
BOG average that guy...I remember chatting to a Knights fan who was excited that they were getting him.I said you won't be once he starts playing for you and it did not go well as I recall.

Hodgkinson played for the Raiders......

Nope, Trent hodkinson played for manly, then us followed by the knights, sharks then manly again where he retired

He can't have done too much tackling since leaving for Tigers.
So possibly a relatively fresh 33/34 year old. He hasn't done Josh Jackson's workload that's for sure.
Plus it was his enthusiasm that was his greatest contribution.
Age shall not weary his enthusiasm.
If he gets in the top 30 and gets a couple of 1st grade games, he'll definitely fire the side up. Will be worth it.

His enthusiasm coupled up with the Fox's enthusiasm will get the team firing

 

[Benno Bulldog]

There is way more to a club than champion players. We won comps with guys stepping up in the past, sure some on here would know that.
