Andy Hodgson too I recall.

Jeffries for a 3 yr deal?

I thought Wakey were a team on the up ?

Deacon got 3 last time & he couldn't lace BJ's boots.

Thought hodgson came from wharfedale rugby union then went back again after left us..scored a fair few tries for wharfedale playing fullback and rebroke his leg again..havent heard of him since then so presume that ended his career..was a bad break he got tho when played for us..was it against paris at home just after we won title at sheffield.

He went to wakefield first, surely? Don't think I'm mixing him up with anyone else?

When we played them the next season, he was kicking goals. I recall he was taking a shot from not that much of an angle, and Sir Bernard looked at him, looked up at the posts, looked back at him and slowly shook his head...and yup - Hodgson missed. Superb!

According to wiki he went, couldnt remember it so cant have done owt for em..I know he deffo went back to wharfedale tho as i watched him at fb and ripped them to bits..got 2 tries nad a few goals if i recall.

Andy Hodgson played against us at Odsal in 99.

. . . you'd have thought three years was enough time to learn how to do that, wouldn't you.

Good point. Then again I thought Wakefield would really struggle this year so as long as they continue to confound their doubters one would have to assume John Kear knows what he's doing.

You would. But as he's only learned to kick in 9 years I'm not surpirised TBH.

Well he's gone back to Wakefield to, in his words, "win silverware". Wasn't that why he joined Bradford in the first place? Maybe if you were a more consistant performer Ben, you might have.
