Should Green go to Warriors (and we don't get Moylan), we could do worse than Hodkinson as plan B.
Pros
- goal kicker
- good general kicking game
- good defender
- organising half (like Green)
- experienced
- played behind beaten pack for two years (would improve at Manly)
- ex Manly
- might be available if new Knights recruit Watson plays in halves.
Cons
- slow
- injury prone
- not known for try assists (which half would be at knights?)
- at times inconsistent
Of course, all depends on price. I wouldn't pay any more for him than Green (300k) and don't see huge difference between the two in general play (Trent's goal kicking makes him more valuable for us).
Would prefer a top half (Moylan) or Hastings (with T Wright as back-up), but if we want a lower-cost journeyman half to replace Green, Trent worth a thought
