Can we bring back Ben "Brainfart" Roberts? Kris "Ugliest Man in League" Keating? Blake "Actually a second rower out of position" Green? Anyone?

Heard on the Footy Show last night that Hoko is back in 1st grade this week.

Anyway, not sure about if I would want him back or nIt but it did make me think about something.
"IF" he did come back, that would mean we would have the same halves as Manly did (Foran and Hodkinson) before we got Hoko.

They played 1 season together and finished 8th.

Some people have short memories. Hodko isn't the answer. Can he organise? Yes. 2014 was a great season for him, it's time to move on.

What we really need to do is overall how we recruit develop players full stop as for getting hodko back no he is just about gone . we need a real number 7 not a pretend one .but looking how we select players I think this is our problem example letting mick go for the guy we have at number 9 now . we need to be better at recruiting

At lest he new how to attack and defend most importantly kick goals thoughts???
Kris Keating would also be a option? If we couldn't get him Ben Roberts.
Roberts has a great passing game.

Hang on.
I remember everyone on this forum begging and pleading for Hokko to fuck off so we could keep the new rising star.

And don't say "not me".

Because it was everyone!!!

He was dead average even when he was at his peak before his injuries. He could tackle and kick goals and organise a bit and that's it.

Kris Keating was more effective for us for crying out loud. Are things so bad now we're pining for Hodkinson and forgetting how bad we were with him?
Where is Kris Keating these days anyway?

Edit: It appears that in early 2015 he was released by the Dragons and now works with something called Sydney Survivors (seems to be a fitness bootcamp type joint)...

One player won't change our structural, attacking, kicking, line speed, contesting kicks, one up plays etc problems.
We all know what will
