Looking like FC stands for feeder club these days

Gutted that it isn't, I'd pre ordered next years shirt with his name on.

Great signing for you!! Didn't want to see him leave but with us having 2 hookers in front of him in the pecking order, he just wouldn't get the game time neede to further his career........... Not sure he's the finished article or fully ready for superleague yet but i'm sure you'll see big things from him!!!

Cracking little signing. Young lads like this who are performing brilliantly in teams reserves are fantastic players to be bringing on board.

Pretty much sums it up. Way behind Houghton and Berro and needs to move for the good of his career. Good luck to him.

i'd like to have seen young scott spav given some game time

Making up quotes is fun, eh?

Pleased about this. More Fozzard than Dowes in the calendar stakes.

Way behind matty? Bet you've not once seen him play!

I meant in terms of the pecking order. I've seen him play 4 or 5 times btw

.

Well, point taken. But at 19, being thrid choice hooker is surely a respectable achievement.

I don't think he's way behind Houghton, but he is behind. Only a year's difference between them in age. Will be really interesting to compare this time next year. Chances are he'll have overtaken Houghton by then, given our current record.

Fourth choice after Tommy Lee. But yes, it was unlikely he was going to make the step up to the first team in the next few years while Berrigan is here and will get his chance to sign at Rovers.

Sensible post, and I assume you actually have seen the guy play several times

Hull had a surfeit of hookers, Rovers needed one. There's no need for points scoring and fallings out over this one, IMO.

Looking forward to seeing him play.

Several's pushing it, 4 or 5 I think. He got absolutely beasted taking his first SL tackle IIRC but has done OK, nothing startling that I've seen myself. But he has been mentioned consistently at reserve level for ages so the right thing all round.

lets be honest, all that have seen fc's 3 hookers play will know that hodgson is the third if not fourth in the cue for first team action behind berrigan, houghton and lee...
a shame to lose a youngster but thats how it goes im afraid. ......is he the finished article that rovers need? nowere near in my opinion, fisher in my opinion isnt good enough either for a team who want to be at the top for a sustained period of time..is cockayne the answer? again not for me, but a good substitute if first choice is injured...obviuosly fitzhenry has gone and he did well at 9 but never set the world alight in his time at rovers....
that leaves hodgsson and spaven as the two young hookers, ive seen alot of spaven, and in my opinion he looks a good prospect, and out-shone hodgson at brantingham last season and at craven park but thats just my opinion of course.....
but whatever happens in th hooking role at rovers next season, it wil be interesting to see if hodgson can claim a starting/interchange role, but i still think he's got alot of work to do to be a starter....
in my opinoin rovers needed a speedy hooker, scooting around the ruck and playing off there big forwards, currentkly that isnt going to happen , maybe hodgson will be the answer in the future but at present its still a problem for the robins..

got it in one

in any other position i'd have been sad to see our 'best reserve player of the year' leave the club...but we have loads of hookers and I coulden't see him getting much game time now that Berrigan will finally get to play no9 every week.
