| I know a few don't rate him but he seems to be slowly turning FC around. Early days but our home form has been terrific. Yes he's made mistakes but he's certainly taking us foreard

The operative word in the above is "few". Most people are fully behind him and appreciate the good job he's doing. Its the perennial pessimists who have nothing better to do than constantly snipe who are the few that you mention.

| I think given that we lost 9 of the last 10 last year we'd have taken the current position after 13 rounds, particularly the home form and the fact we've beaten Wigan, Catalans and Warrington and not really had some of those horrific blow out losses.
Pretty happy with the pack and outside backs and the fact we have some good talent coming through. Halves and attacking structure still the big issue for me when Connor's not "on it". Both in terms of getting the most from what we currently have and what that will look like next year. Team spirit seems good and I think Hodgson is a broad thinker beyond the playing side - fans involvement etc. I think he's OOC next year so wonder whether they're thinking about an extension. Ambiguity and awkward resolution around the coaching position can derail a club pretty quickly so hope this is avoided.

| Doing Ok for me although at this time last year we were in a similarly good position, sitting in 5th place. Hopefully no slump as we saw in the second half of 2021 - there were mitigating circumstances of course with Covid and having home games with Leigh and Salford cancelled.
I like the team we are assembling off the field and the academy seems in rude health but it all depends on the first team squad decisions next season. The much hyped Trueman signing looks a good one but what happens with Gale and what are the plans for Jake Connor.

Pretty fair assessment. Some stuff and areas are much improved and likewise there are areas we still seem to be lacking a similar levels of improvement. Think the half backs this season are a cause of concern and not helping Hodgson admittedly.
Still feel he lacks the courage to go with youth over senior players if not performing.
I think the business end of the season will be the biggest test as that is were we have failed to deliver big time the past few seasons.
Home results have been much improved which Is a big tick in the box plus the style/form of play at home has been improving slowly.
Overall I’m happy so far but doesn’t mean I won’t mention things that aren’t so good.

| Hodgo doing a good job, he's building a good squad and we are looking strong, could do with 2 from 3 from the next three tough games away.

| Utter garbage coach. We must have at least half a dozen top coaches on this forum who could do a far better job!!

| I'm glad he's sorted out our home form. And that's not just cos a I got a pass this year.
We also seem a lot more robust which is nice. Not quite up to the epic goal line defences of 2016 and 17 but definitely an improvement.
Our attack is a bit basic right now but I'm sure he's aware of that and if we can have the same apime for two weeks running I'm sure it'll get better.
B+ Could do better

| Biggest difference this season is our reduced error count.
We seem a lot more comfortable going set for set against teams too. The Cats, Hudds, Wire and Wigan home games would've seen us panic in previous seasons and end up losing a few of those games.
Can he lead us to silverware? I'm unsure, but he's turning things around after we got stale under Radford.

| Not sure if anyone on here went to it but he spoke brilliantly at the video analysis session which was open to fans.
Honesty and togetherness were the big things that he places so much emphasis on and I think it's been clear over the past few weeks how together we are as a team right now, the reaction to Balmforths try and Sataes on Saturday was so good to see.
He also spoke highly of Gaz Ellis and how he is really growing into the role as our defensive coach and Shenton got so much praise from everyone there for the job he is doing.

| What a good piece by Tomlinson in today's HDM. Praising Hodgson and saying we are going in the right direction. Yes we will and are having bumps in the road but this is to be expected.

Not convinced, whole attacking plan seems to based on one player and won't drop certain players.
Very worried about recruitment next year too, even Lovodua saying no deal has been sorted yet could do with some positive news about the club.

The one outstanding player signing Hodgson has made and the club have still not sorted out his deal.
Yes we have an option for next year but what are they doing?
Even an announcement on the players not retained for next season would create some interest

| Hold on you where all singing Tomlinson praises couple of days ago? Saying what an honest and truthful bloke he is. Which by the way I agree with. Sees it like most fans.

Have to say I tend to agree as other than the reserves can't say anything else if filling me with me confidence, even AP seems to have gone very quiet. Don't know if its just me or not but I actually feel quite disconnected from the club since the lockdown and think communication by the club to and with fans since has been poor. At the time when a lot of people were complaining about lack of information coming from the club during those times I defended it and gave it the benefit of doubt but nothing seems to have improved in that department since the end of lockdown.
It all just seems a bit for want of a better word rudderless, maybe its just because of the general feeling of apathy after the last two games which all seems a bit like deja vue.
