Yeah there was a period of time after he did his achillies where I was leaning towards letting Hodges go for the balance of the side. The impression I had was that he had to be the highest paid player at the club, but ultimately due to his track record with injury he wasn't going to help the club win the big games so I'd rather invest it in the young guys who were all coming off contract the following year. Essentially, it was following the Broncos '96 model where you move all these really good players on since their best is behind them and you go with youth. Except in that instance the Broncos had Lockyer, Webcke, Thorn, Tallis, De Vere and Mundine coming to the club. Even when the Broncos signed the Dally M Centre of the Year, Hodgo still left a massive void and the side really missed him. [USER=1928]@Renegade[/USER] I'm pretty sure I was right there with you on the Cowboys. Something to the effect that I had always had a soft spot for them, but after 2011-14 I was tired of them under delivering and 2015 looked no different. I think I even knocked JT for his form and then the very next game he pulls it out of the fire against Melbourne and the rest they say is history. My only solace is that I was adamant Granville had to be their starting hooker over on Stampede when they were looking at other options. [/QUOTE]
