Then why the thread ?

Ignore him, he's not giving his own intelligent response, he is just trying to be an and get a rise out of Last son of wigan for his opinion that we have not missed HH since he has been injured. Of course we will miss Hoffman, he is absolutely world Class but as others have stated we have a wealth of riches at SR and I'm sure we will cope.

Because somebody saw a report and they thought they would share it on a forum!!



Hoffman signed a 1 year deal with an option for a second. Everybody hoped he would take the option but not many believed he would, it now seems he is actively seeking a return to the Storm, not leaving early just leaving when expected.

I've got more respect for Hoffman than any other import that's come to SL. He came over with complete honesty. In reality probably didn't really want to be here, as given the choice he would still be in Melbourne. He has given 100% and from what i've seen been our best player this year.

I like Hoffman, he's a top quality player and he'll be missed by Wigan if he do t take the option of another year up.

Spot on mate

It was Melbourne or england for a year until they got there salary cap sorted.hes been brilliant and i pray we get 1 more year from him...very unlikely as it seems melbourne have sorted them selfs out.

I think it was always the case that melbourne told him to go to england for a year until they got there cap sorted then come back..The option for a second year was all down to melborne getting there cap sorted within one season IMO.

My uncle lives in melborne and told me last year that Hoffman didn't want to leave the storm and is storm thru and thru.

I think coming to the uk was the better of to evils for him..play over here for a season until melbourne get there cap in order or sign a multi year deal with another NRL club...Hopefully but it seems very unlikely reading reports melbourne will tell him stay one more year..it seems they want him back next season.

My uncle lives in Wigan and told me last year that Hoffman is Wigan through and through.

Yes mate, that's why he's jumping ship back to the storm at first chance.

I was pointing out how ridiculous your statement was. Thank you.

I am still hoping Hoffman will love it over here so much that he will stay. Maybe just one year and then go back, that would be ideal.

whoooooooooosh

How can it be so ridiculous that my uncle whos a storm fan said he dint think Hoffman will stay long or sign fOr another NRL club because he's storm through and through?

I don't see how that's ridiculous at all.

As they say though, every board has a idiot and looks like your the Wigan idiot.

I think you have had a sense of humour bye pass.... You are normally sharper than this... Late night?

Yep it was a late night

Hock will be just as good when he settles in so its not all gloom Hoffmans been great at Wigan and good luck to him on his return

He'll have had to improve a hell of a lot from the last time he played 2yrs ago if he's now just as good as Hoffman.

Sounds like the two year of playing no rugby has done him a world of good

The hoff had a shocker tonight. Just shows that even the best players can have their off days.

He wasnt at his best . He can be forgiven

He had a couple of handling errors, but the man is a bloody machine. He gets through so much work it's untrue.

I hope your uncle at least knows how to spell the name of the place he lives in

Had a shocker in terms of errors today but everything else he did was quality. Still expect better from the Hoff. He can't make those errors in big games.

Have you even watched Hock play?

When he was banned he was easily the best running second row in the British game.

Nobody expects him to come back at that level immediately, but whatever level he comes back at will be enough to eclipse that fraud Jon Wilkin.
