Howarth needs to improve from last season, he was very poor sometimes also Flint had a few off meetings and Boughen was very poor at the end of last season plus you always need at least one good reserve so the hope is Hodder can be that one, he did getb 6 at his last meeting, so it isn't as straightforward as some may think.

You’re entitled to your opinion, but we’re going win the league and if you can keep up, we’ll do it again at Wimborne Road.

Howarth will put half a point on his average this year at least imo.

The 1-5 is the best in the league and Freddy Hodder will be one of the better reserves. It's a very scary looking team indeed and it has league champions written all over it. A great team-build by the Tigers this season.

A great team-build by the Tigers this season and if Ashton continues to improve at the rate he is improving then don't be surprised if Glasgow have 5 heat leaders by the time the play-offs come around

I agree they could have the best 1-5 in the league, but don't see Hodder being one of the better reserves. Maybe he'll improve, but as things stand Glasgow look to have the weakest reserves in the league.

Could still do very well with that top 5 though.

Freddie Hodder won the Stars of Tomorrow competition in September, ahead of competition from the likes of Connor Coles, Jake Mulford, Jody Scott and Acr Pijper.

The same Freddie Hodder scored 6+2 while guesting for us at home to Oxford at the tail end of last season.

Our top five will throw every single other team in the league around like a wet towel, but make no mistake: the acquisition of Freddie Hodder is a strategic, planned piece of business.

The exaggerated focus on our reserves is an attempt to persuade themselves, not us, that everything will be okay.

So what your saying is he mugged Berwick off by averaging 1.52 for them all season, and is proceeding to do a Kevin Wolbert on them to succeed at Glasgow, got ya.

What on earth are you talking about?

I provided two examples which demonstrated Hodder’s potential. That is what Glasgow have invested in; potential.

How you’ve came to the conclusion that this means he’s in any way ”mugging off” Berwick is beyond me.

It was a sarcasm Mr Worrall, you are talking like he's the Second coming of Christ.

If Glasgow want to pin hopes on 2 guys potential who averaged a combined 2.56 then fair enough

All I'll say is watching Sam McGurk who somehow averaged more than both of them was painful.

I suggest you look up the definition of ‘sarcasm’ because that certainly wasn’t an example of it.

Where have you got the impression that Glasgow are pinning their hopes on two reserves? The hope is being pinned on the strongest top five, in actual fact.
