Excellent another 80 minutes of him at hooker. Even uis defence looks shakey these days.
The bloke was out on his feet yesterday, it's inexcusable how Hodgson uses him.
Exactly after 25 mins Houghton was out on his feet and it was criminal that the Coach left him out their and continues to do so. If you watched wherever Houghton tried to go in the line to catch a breath St's just pinpointed and exploited him and just went through like a hot knife through butter, yet Hodgson still persisted on leaving him out. I'll give Houghton credit for trying to keep going but the time has come for him to tell Hodgson he can no longer do 80 mins. He is at the stage the same as Ellis was were when he'd played 80mins he needs more than a week to recover otherwise he's a liability in the defensive line and in one that already brittle is just giving opposition teams a field day.
It's not new either as Hodgson has done it almost every time since he took over as Coach, even the oppostion know that Houghton will be out on hios feet after 30mins even more so in the energy sapping heat.
This is another reason why I just don't see Hodgson as the right guy for the job as Head Coach.
