He mentions quality players, and then the 2 names mentioned this week are Scurr and Joe Wardle. Hopefully that's the depth, and the rumours of the quality will start this week.

Hopefully Fonua and Reynolds can be moved on and then 400k comes available and 2 quota spots


Those two will hopefully be signings 4 and 5.

With 2 quota signings, including a prop, halfback and hooker

Joe Wardle is a reasonable quality utility man who’s become injury prone of late. It’s like Peter Gentle is back in charge.

Not about Hodgson, but his former club Wests

Apparently looking at both Wane & McNamara if/when Madge is relieved of his duties.

These players have put in pathetic efforts under three coaches, so that tells me the attitude and professionalism of this group needs breaking. I dont think either of the 3 head coaches this group has had has coached them to have no backbone or pride.

I honestley dont know if Hodgson will be successful here but no one coach out there will transform a team from 8th to top 2 or 3 in one season. A new coach needs at least 2 to 3 seasons to build, from what I hear things behind the scenes where massively behind other clubs something Hodgson has alluded to in interviews recentley.

What we do know is the pack needs more fight and depth, the backline needs more speed. Thats a start.

The above is pretty much on the money. There is a reason that the team is not performing to its potential and it has had 3 coaching changes so whilst there where some issue with the old coaching regime the changes made in regards to coaching has not made an awful lot of difference. We have even had a few changes in player personnel, so you have to ask is it all down to coaching or is it down to the attitude of the players within the team and particularly the core group of players that have been here for some time. Is the loss of Ellis in the playing squad who carried an authority and didn't accept players not putting in the effort part of the problem with now no leader or respected player within the team to hold them to account for the poor performances?
Something in very wrong within the team as the talent is there and they are capable of doing much better but there seems to be no fire or intensity within the group as a collective, the usual players seem to give it their all but there are some that just don't.

As for the pack we have a big issue as we have 3 players that have hardly strung a run of games together for two seasons due to constant injuries and until that gets addressed it will be a problem.

I can only hope the BH now has full understanding on the players that can be counted on and the ones that seem to lack conviction and pride.

The words of fools mean nothing to one who resides in the truth.

I don't believe that's true. Justin Holbrook took a Saints team that looked finished and transformed them and he only stayed for 3 seasons. Most class Aussie coaches rarely last more than 3 seasons before they find a better job. It took Daryl Powell 1 year to get Cas to Wembley and he transformed their style of play in his very first season.

All I look for is any set plays, or stylistic differences in our play this season compared to under Radford. And I'm yet to notice anything different. Even the much talked about extra effort in defence early doors is no different to when we was playing well under Radford.

Didn’t Maguire win super league after just signing Paul Deacon?

To be fair, he maybe had more to work with than Hodgson.

Hodgson just needs a little reggae man.

Stir it up, followed by

Tears on my pillow, then

I can see clearly now.

Easy problem fixed.

Our style wont change why we have the likes of Shaul, Reynolds, Sneyd and Houghton, probably the worst pivots in SL., certainly the least creative and carried by Connor.

Desperately need to add a halfback and hooker to our squad, if we dont things wint improve next season.
