I was going for the 'to rob' or 'to pilage' meaning of the word. The title could have at least being changed to robs so it makes sense.

Pretty much the way I called it...

Hobson could have been a great player but cant control himself. If only he took the ball up a couple of times in a set of six he would be much more appreciated...im not gonna knock him...he just needs to sort it out. He still has a few years in him...think he is only around 28. Too much misplaced aggression really. Good luck to Leigh for rest of season...great players have always come out of your town.

Indeed they have but I bet the Leigh fans wish they would stay there instead of signing elsewhere? The amount of good players your town has turned out is unbelievable.

Keeping on thread I think you are spot on.

thanks mr shaw, a inspired signing, truly inspired, hobson is a waste of time, and i am fed up with him, sooner his contract expires the happier i'l be, and the same for quite a few others, stewart especially.

Hobson aint been the same player ...or potentially the player he could have been since he picked up a bad head injury when we played down at London Skolars.

Then he did try to keep his agression in check & ran his weight/power. Now all he has got is weight & no power. This frustrates him & thats why he comes in with cheap shots etc. He must have been well & truly embarassed by watching real props on the park on Sunday.

He seemed to have a bit of a 'sulk' at the end of the game as well, I think it's about time he took a step down to the reserves for a few games until he gets his game in check.

I have seen him play in the reserves this season and he went well. His problem is his short fuse imo.

Was that only to get his fitness back though - not a result of bad performances. I hope that the introduction of Castle starts to make him work harder to earn his spot in the side but on Sunday's showing it doesn't seem to have much effect on him. How many hit-ups did he have on Sunday, one?

A rest of season loan spell should do the trick, the Russian leagues have started.

He bloody won't! You'll have to find some other mug to pay him cos we're not having him back.
