It's a promising read. Hopefully for the main next season we will see Lovodua starting with Dwyer coming off the bench. Houghton will start when the injuries hit and Lovodua has to cover elsewhere. Balmforth will make a handful of appearances, I imagine.
So much for those in the know who said Lovodua was refusing to play hooker.
Joey came here with no expectations and a lot of our own supporters wondered what his strengths were and how he could compete in our team. I think he's shown them in many different positions - the unfortunate thing for Joey is that he hasn't had a chance to play in his favoured position a lot this year due to other circumstances but he's put his hand up, he's contributed well and he deserves that second year. We're happy for him.
Hodgson talking out of his backside
He has had a lot of chances to play in his favoured nine position but Hodgson has chosen wrongly to run Danny Houghton into the ground by flogging him match after match for 80 minutes rather than using Lovodua off the bench as the replacement nine and providing some zip into the attack.
Hodgson seems to love Utility but that has been stretched too far with Lovodua resulting in too many below par performances
