I'm trying to multi-task. It never works out well.

Brown didn't sound too happy to lose him.

Enough said.

dont you just love those very bitter and jealous wiganers..last year hodgson was man of steel now he`s a stop gap signing..talking out of their hole again...be more concerned about your own mob.after all its quite a few years since you last won owt

If it's not been posted elsewhere, my predictions for 2011 areJames Lowes - Contract not renewed
Chris Hicks - Contract not renewed
Vinnie Anderson - Contract not renewed
Richard Mathers - Warrington RLFC
David Solomona - Warrington RLFC
Brett Hodgson - Warrington RLFC; Player/Assistant Manager, most of his salary paid as Assistant Manager?

2013 Brett Hodgson - Manager of Warrington Wolves RLFC

James Lowes is on the shortlist to become next Bradford manager i believe.

Really ?

I thought they'd go back to Nobby, perhaps leave Iestyn at Crusaders with Jon Sharp as his number two.

If anything, maybe Lowes 'groomed' under Noble ...

I believe so along with Brian McDermott and Stephen Kearney. He is 10/1 with some bookies aswell.

Because Bailey isn't the reigning MoS, wasn't moving clubs, and is an average player who's been kept around for his influence.

I don't really see the comparison with Bailey tbh, if i'm wrong about Hodgsons wage then fair enough. But surely you must assume he's not moving clubs for peanuts, even with the security of the two years?

haha, doesn't work like that.

utter tosh! he's head and shoulders above any recent signing your club has made, you slagged king off when he first signed, monaghan when he played at 7.

tbh your statement just reinforces what a good signing he really is.

As a Giants fan I am sad to see Brett go but I think the Giants have made the right call on this, The reason for this is he will be 33 before he plays a game for you, he has played 7 out of 17 games for the Giants this season and is now out for another month.
If we had signed him for another year I would have been delighted, 2 years and it's a tough call but feel we have made the right one? this will become clear over the next 2 seasons after this one, as to if it was right or wrong.
You are getting a thinker, a great professional who is positionally brilliant and a great influence, but you are also getting a player who needs to be able to offload to someone when he has taken the high ball, chip thru or grubber cos the pace isn't there anymore but then again it wasn't when he won MOS either.
Whatever happens good luck to the lad as he has done us proud.
