Probably the contracted one.

Hull KR now leading the chase to sign Huddersfield Giants winger David Hodgson? by Chris Roberts, Huddersfield Daily Examiner Jul 13 2011 ShareAdd a commentRecommend HULL KR are believed to be leading the race to sign Giants winger David Hodgson on a two-year deal. Out of contract at the end of the current campaign, the 29-year-old had been linked with a move to Widnes Vikings as they prepare to build a side capable of competing in their first season since being granted a Super League licence. The Vikings were thought to be close to announcing Hodgson’s capture last week, along with that of Crusaders duo Jason Chan and Hep Cahill. But those plans appear to have been scuppered as the trio attract the interest of rival Super League clubs, with Papua New Guinea back-row forward Chan linked with a possible move to the Giants. Rovers are understood to be pushing hard to sign the Hull-born Hodgson in a bid to strengthen a position that has troubled them throughout this season. With 13 tries to his name so far this season, Hodgson has scored more tries than all of Rovers’ wingers combined! Read More www.examiner.co.uk/huddersfield- ... z1RyRM8J00

Marvellous.



Now what was wrong with the other thread?



(End Mod mode)



'Hodgy' is going to be a handy addition.

11 errors - 6 tries for Colbon



15 errors - 13 tries for Hodgson



Anyway like these Hudds fans who are sorry to see Hodgson go I will be sad to see Colbon leave if he does, while he is not a flamboyant winger he makes good meters and isn't too different to Hodgson on the stats. Maybe if Colbon was playing for Huddersfield this season he'd be up there on 13 tries too?

Quote fartown since 1961="fartown since 1961"Go onto www.superleague.com and go to SLTV and watch the Giants v catalans highlights and when dodgy scores the 90 yard intercept tell me he has 'no pace.' He had knee recon it takes anyone 12 months to get back their pace just look at peacock and mcguire who now look distinctly average its cos knee recon is a long recovery beyond just getting back and thats what happened to dodgy and yes i would keep him'" Just watched the try, he certainly showed the Catalans a clean pair of heels, if thats not raw pace then i dont know what is, would be a very good signing imo.

On the face of it this looks like a very good signing but there are a few things that trouble me with it.

Hodgson has played the best rugby of his career on the left wing so are we going to see Fox shifted back to the right where he has gone on record as stating he is not as happy? Failing that are we going to see Hodgson playing at full back given that his signing has coincided with the announcement of Briscoes departure?

The biggest thing that concerns me though is actually how much he wants to be here. He has turned down contracts from both Rovers and Hull pretty much every year over the past 5/6 years. This contract with Rovers was agreed at the back end of last year despite his missus having a real reluctance to move to this city. At the last minute Widnes came in with a better financial offer than us. Given that he has just, i believe, bought a house in Hessle i would have called his bluff but instead Rovers upped their offer to match the Chemics. In short i think that we could have a Gareth Carvell situation on our hands if Daves missus gets bored of the 2 hour drive to the Trafford Centre every day.

It'll be reet, Meadowhall's only about an hour isn't it?

Jesus he's quick!

On that short clip alone I'd say he'll be more of an asset than Colbon (no offence Liam

).

More of an asset, but no offence!

I just meant that I don't think Colbon would have scored that try (e.g. have had the pace), but again no offence.



If Byron Ford on the other hand had took it I don't reckon the Catalans players would have even bothered giving chase!

Yeah, season pass holder pal. Have you seen many games? Sounds like you haven't!
