Hodkinson returns to Manly

[Class of 96]

In the words of the immortal King Cherry....trust me this good is Manly will beat that Storm team and win title.

Just give us a week to dream!

01. Turbo
02. Taufua
03. Walker
04. Suli
05. Kelly
06. Dce
07. Hodkinson

Uate is surplus, can’t not have Suli in the side in my opinion, move to next year..

That is a brilliant backline!

 

[eaglebuzz]

This week will be the best backline we've had run out all year. And the surge in Lane and Paseka's form has helped to compensate for the loss of Tanginoa and Sironen.

With Smith out for the Storm, and Hodkinson and Taufua in for us, are a real chance now

 

[qldeagle]

I'm pumped, Hodko will be great for us and he's a Manly boy. Welcome home mate. Great to see you again.

I remember William Stirton making a massive difference to the Glebe attack in 1922.

 

[Jerry1]

I think it will make a massive difference. DCE has been lost on his own. If these guys can click it should be fun again to watch.

 

[eagerbeaver]

That is a brilliant backline!

Personally I think Suli is suited better to wing then Kelly.
He is taller and likely better under the high ball, and he has a stronger carry coming back from our own end. That's what you want in a modern winger. Just needs to trim down a tad..

I remember William Stirton making a massive difference to the Glebe attack in 1922.

I remember Billy Shirt On. I had just had my fiftieth birthday party when he starred in the '22 grand final against the Teddys. Lost that one. Frank Burge spat the dummy during that match. Top 5/8 was Billy. The good old Dirty Reds. Mind you it wasnt my first fiftieth really. I'm a little older than that. Go the Gs.

 

[HoldenV8]

Tell me you don't remember that stuff off the top of your head @HoldenV8?! I've got the 08, and '11 grandfinals locked in, then it's google after that.

The name's Bundy.....Al Bundy.

No life, just sports 😉

 

[R3]

I'd like to see Trent get the 7 jersey back and have Cherry playing the 6 since that would fit their roles in the team. Look forward to seeing Jorge back too!

Hodgko should be great. Never thought I would say this in 2018. But Man I am hoping Walker plays that running half role again this week. A little interchange with Hodgko between defence and attack on plays 1-4 will work a treat. Walkers running game has just been exciting to watch. The last 2 weeks Walker transformed a massive breath of fresh are into this team.

Please don't just move him back to the centres 100 per cent of the time.

You now have a massive opportunity.

Dont stop what you started. Just tweak it, with Hodgko.

$100 the storm target hodko with twisting, knee diving wrestling tackles in an attempt to end his season.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

We’ve had Hodo, Hodgko.

What’s next - Smoko?

Last time I checked, his name is Hodkinson. Hence Hodko.🙂

 

[Michael Clare]

I wonder how we'd be running if he had signed with us in the off season?

Top point!

Mr Hodkinson to you.

My memory only extends to our Grand Final wins and our last start flogging of Brisbane. I’m in a good place.

I'd actually put money on that if I could.

No I believe he is suspended for this match.
