Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
As stated before the only player in the hooking role running around in Europe who could make the grade down here would be Roby but he is signed up for another three years and I can't see him doing a cruiser gate to get out of it...
Oh and thanks for someone updating the title, does look better now

Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
And that thread is WAY too busy, this is at least deserving of it's own thread as some people are claiming it's legit.
Oh and his "denial" is:

Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
It has a source, so it's fine to remain its own thread.
Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
Sounds promising.
Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
The more I read about this the more excited I get. Just as I wasn't giving a **** the raiders drag me back in

Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
The idea to recruit from England wasn't such a bad idea afterall.
Time will tell. Recruiting from the ESL is like recruiting from Q Cup anyway.

The spiral of silence refers to the idea that when people fail to speak, the price of speaking rises. As the price to speak rises, still fewer speak out, which further causes the price to rise, so that fewer people yet will speak out, until a whole culture or nation is silenced. This is what happened in Germany.
If you do not speak, you are not being neutral, but are contributing to the success of the thing you refuse to name and condemn.

24 years old, 119 first grade games under his belt and has played for the England Knights (basically England 'A').
Sounds like there's some promise there.

Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
He is certainly appears to be one of the better hookers in England, but it's very hit and miss how well they do over here. I haven't seen a Hull game this year wouldn't help I guess.
Some random stats:
http://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/playe ... mmary.html
He has a higher win rate than our coach, big conflict there...

I was going to say maybe we'll get lucky and he's friends with the halfback, alas Hull KR's halves are Kris Keating and Travis Burns

I tell you what though, it's a damn strong message to Buttriss that he's being moved on.
First Ennis now Hodgson.

Number 3 hooker in England sounds like something out of Borat.

Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
Ill believe he's signed when he arrives in Australia.
I bow down to thee oh great Nickman, the wisest of the wise, your political adroitness is unsurpassed, your sagacity is unmatched, your wisdom shines through on this forum amongst us mere mortals as bright as your scalp under the light of a full moon, never shall I doubt your analytical prowess again. You are my hero, my lord, my savior, may you accept my offerings so you continue to bless us with your genius.

Worst case, we finally have someone who can get it together enough to dive over from dummy half.

Son, we live in a world that has forums, and those forums have to be guarded by Mods. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Nickman? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Lucy, and you curse GE. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know -- that GE’s moderation, while tragic, probably saved lives; and my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, keeps threads on track and under the appropriately sized, highlighted green headings.
You want moderation because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that forum -- you need me on that forum. We use words like "stay on topic," "use the appropriate forum," "please delete." We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very moderation that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather that you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you get a green handle and edit a post. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think about moderation.

Hull KR are demanding the Canberra Raiders to pay them six figure $ to release Josh Hodgson from the final 2 years of contract. #nrl
Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
Deal fly him over today. Think of it as the fat we would have to add to nab someone from Sydney.
Re: Josh Hodgson reportedly signs with Raiders
Just looking at some games online. At the ESL level, this guy can play.
I have no idea how that translate to NRL.

He seems to play quite a bit of first receiver, too.
Who knows if anything at ESL level has any meaning over here, but on the whole he looks really solid.
