Hodko was an ordinary HB. He had no running game, no creativity and rarely threw the money ball to set up tries. He basically threw nothing passes and kicked on the last. That's why Manly let him go because they had someone far better coming up - DCE.Why have we been unable to recruit, identify or develop a half back since Trent Hodkinson? It has been seven years since we have had a NRL standard half. Every person responsible for recruitment and development are all fkn frauds and should hang their heads in shame.
That's why in 2014 despite having the best forward pack in the comp we struggled to score when we were in the red zone because the halves were crap and had no idea how to set up tries and we were often reliant on field goals to win games. That's around the time the Desball tactic of "Tolman on the 4th" began and started the cancer in the club because Hodko and Reynolds were clueless in attack. We have not had a top class HB since an aging Noddy in 2009-10.
