I agree. Have been impressed with hodgson during his spell with raiders but i dont think he is a better option for this team over Roby right now.

Besides his slow distribution he just doesn't provide enough variation with the ball, maybe in the NRL he's got more skilful half backs to move the ball on along the attacking line for him. Roby, plays with his head up and will see whats in front of him much quicker, 2 or 3 plays in every set he will draw defenders to him before releasing the ball, most of the time its a quick ball and he does the occasional scoot when he sees the backs of defenders.

Blimy I am glad we won after reading all the comments on hear I thought we lost the game it was the team we played against that tried their best to spoil it and the bloody useless REF was to blame if he had been refin a aussie match they would have shot him by now

Graham and hill aren't at the level they were 4 years ago. Lacking some aggression and go forward in the middle

Graham is a top player. Everyone can see our problems lie in the half backs and centres.

Great approach to the game. As heavy favourites some would of expected us to force plays and become lazy in defence and treat the opposition disrespectfuly. Glad to see that wasn't the case.

Nobody stood out. Our best players are wasted on the edges. Hall and Mcgillvary didn't see enough ball and often left standing. Watkins played better than I've seen in awhile?, though holds the ball too long at times. Bateman looked good at centre but is wasted there.

Half backs seemed to lack any energy. Ratchford was the biggest dissapointment for me.
Thought our forwards were okay, not great.

No problem with Hodgson. Thought he did the job that was expected.

Bennett's tone in the post match interview pretty much summed up the entertainment that was served.

Roby needs to play. Hodgson is just too one dimensional

Hodgson is easily one of your best players, unfortunately he's just progressed too far beyond the rest of your spine & the rest of them are bamboozled by his superior knowledge & foresight, Bennett knows this & i'm sure he's trying to fast track the rest of your "super" league players to somewhere near his level, its obviously the same reason he will stick with Heighington, he knows how to beat Melbourne so he knows how to beat Australia, he's not scared or overawed by the experience

You missed Hodgson’s poor handling skills, limited ideas and predictability from his assets.

With that performance England will struggle to score points against France.

you sir are a joke

We've gone backwards under Bennet. We were at our best under mcbanana down under in 2014.
