Hodgson targets career milestone

Aug 2 2008 by Chris Roberts, Huddersfield Daily Examiner

“It was fantastic scoring to get off the mark here, and it will be even better if I can help us win tomorrow by making it 100 tries in my career.”

Hodgson was yesterday named in the Giants’ 19-man squad for the trip to The Jungle, along with new signing David Faiumu, who has been handed squad No29.

The potential debut for the New Zealand Test hooker will obviously create extra interest in the clash.

And the performance of current No9 Ryan Hudson will also be under the spotlight.

The 28-year-old has been linked with a move back to the Tigers, although the player himself recently admitted he has yet to open talks with the Giants about his future plans.

MEET SKANDO:

INJURED Huddersfield prop John Skandalis, who will be returning to his native Australia at the end of the season, will be the guest speaker at the Senior Giants meeting next Wednesday.

It will take place at the Galpharm Stadium banqueting suite at 2.15pm prompt.

Skandalis is ruled out for the rest of the season with a knee injury.
