Not shocked at him getting a job, as think he had some good qualities, could see him being involved in junior pathways, but surprised to see him as a defence coach.

Glad he has a job though, as seemed a nice guy.

Just read that this morning so I had a quick browse at the 2022 superleague table to check the defensive points against. Don't think England Rugby Union have took note in terms of defence coaching.

Wasn't all his fault, think Ellis was mainly responsible for defence, but he will have had his say. When he played I'd say his attack was his strongest part of his game too.

Similar thinking, thought he (Hodgson) would have been better suited towards an attack coach

Certainly a move that has come out of left-field but then he's well known to Eddie Jones.

Good luck to him, a decent man, the job at Hull unfortunately just didn't work out.

Seems a strange move when you look at how poor we where under his tenure but he had good links with Eddie Jones. Not sure how successful an appointment, though time will tell but how much time Jones has left is another story.

Best of luck to Hodgson.

Good luck Brett, in your new career path.

I sincerely hope that you are successful.

All the Best.

Keiron Purtill is back at Leigh. Head of youth & women's head coach.

Can't really say he did much while he was here. Our attack was blunt apart from Connor.

Seen Chris OConnor is now the Welfare officer at Salford too

Wonder if Hodgsons time in RU is over already with the England coaching changes

Job looks to have gone to Sinfield

Shame for Hodgson. Once thing he seemed to be was a decent guy.

Now the Aussie RU defence coach. Eddie Jones must rate him. Glad he's got something sorted.

Martin Gleeson back in RL after Jones sacking .

Josh Hodgson playing for Parramatta Eels v Storm
Both FC and KR unable to see his beyond obvious talents !! clowns we are

Utter rubbish. Both your sentiments and english

Have to agree with Keith, Hodgson was great for Rovers, unfortunately for Hull it was really bad timing we had Berrigan and Houghon at the time, should we have kept Hodgson probably, but we have had 10 years of good service from him and two challenge cups, we wouldn't have got that from Josh, so probably the right decision. Litten was a shocker from Radford though, just at time we needed a young dynamic hooker and he choose to play players out of position and Litten got fed up and wanted a move, which has worked out really well for him.

Be interesting to see how Hodgson's cousins go at Newcastle and Hull, both highly rated.

Hodgson was mix bag , Even at International level .

We'd have won a super league with Hodgson instead of Houghton

Seeing already we sign a good attacking hooker and houghton is already down the pecking order and rightly so

Agree

But Houghton hasn't ever got close to international level even in 2016

100% better than any other of your home grown hookers in recent times

Better but not by 100%

Hodgson suffered at FC because he was third choice. He went to Rovers and did ok. He came on leaps and bounds in the NRL system but and it’s a big but 3 ACL’s have dented his career. If he was at FC and had that injury history some on here would be saying he’s passed it and get rid. Probably you’d be one of them they way you’ve pitched your tent on here.

He did far more than be ok with KR. If that was true he would never had landed an NRL contract. Don’t let the facts get in the way of trying to score a point.

Depends what you write into “ok”. Don’t let the FACTS that I stated get in the way of trying to score a point, you didn’t deal with anything I said. Perhaps it’s not a tent you’ve pitched but a caravan.

Oh you are so clever.
