Hodgson chasing Goal Kicking record?

So far this year Hodgson has kicked 20 straight goals, not sure how many consecutive goals he's kicked now.

He kicked 2 from 3 in the Tigers 54-10 win over the Cowboys last year, which was the last time he lined up for goals prior to this year. Anyone know if he missed his first second or third attempt that day?

Do reckon he's a chance of chasing down the record for most consecutive goals

Record is 30 odd isn't it? 36? He's hitting them sweetly that's for sure, and from all over the park.

I don't think he'll get there personally.

He missed his first of three, so that puts him on 22 consecutive goals I believe.

8 min: TRY Wests Tigers
Benji Marshall throws a great pass to hit Liam Fulton square on the chest who manages to get the ball away to Tuiaki, scoring a few metres out from the sideline. He somehow manages to get through the three defenders. Conversion attempt by Brett Hodgson unsuccessful.
Wests Tigers 4-0


11 min: PENALTY - TIGERS: Paul Bowman has been put on report for a dangerous spear tackle. Tigers get their third penalty in a row and get another 50 metres for free.

13 min: John Morris knocks on from a loose Cowboys pass. A let off for the Cowboys as they will get another set.

14 min: PENALTY - COWBOYS: Thurston puts a high ball up, defused by the Tigers and quickly tackled by Brenton Bowen. However, Hodgson has been penalised a few metres out for incorrectly playing the ball (walking off the mark). A harsh call by Hayne, but the Cowboys have their best shot of the night.

16 min: TRY North Queensland Cowboys
On the back of a dubious penalty, the Cowboys get their first points of the night from Justin Smith. Poor defence from the Tigers allowed Smith to get over the line. Conversion attempt by Johnathan Thurston unsuccessful.
4 all

17 min: PENALTY - COWBOYS: Tigers give the Cowboys another piggyback penalty.

24 min: VIDEO REF- TIGERS: Great Kick by Marshall may have put Dean Collis in for a try. I think Collis has knocked on. Bowen looked like an amateur as he barely even attempted to go for the ball.

24 min: NO TRY- TIGERS: Collis deemed to have knocked on. The Cowboys are very lucky and need to lift their game.

25 min: Experiencing some technical difficulities at the moment on Leagueunlimited. The updates may appear slower
than they should. We apologise for any inconveinience this may cause and are working to rectify the problem.

26 min: Cowboys have not made Benji Marshall make a tackle tonight which boggles the mind.

31 min: TRY Wests Tigers
John Morris gets over the line and puts the Tigers in front. The Cowboys are starting to slow down and are slowly falling away from this game. Conversion attempt by Brett Hodgson successful.
Wests Tigers 10-4

35 min: Webb throws the best forward pass of his career and almost puts Thurston in for a try. The Tigers are penalised for being offside about half a metre out. The Cowboys looked destined the score, but have the ball stripped by Fitzhenry from 3 metres out.

37 min: TRY Wests Tigers
Brett Hodgson has scored from a good kick from Farah right under the black dot. Hodgson had time to comb his hair and clip his toe-nails before scoring that try. The Cowboys look flat, and just are not playing consistent enough. They look horrendous when the Tigers kick into their in-goal. Conversion attempt by Brett Hodgson successful.
Wests Tigers 16-4

ERRORS:
Wests Tigers: 6
North Queensland Cowboys: 4

39 min: Brenton Bowen drops the ball after a good set from the Cowboys. Its a positive sign they have broken the line, but they just are not capitalising on it.

40 min: ATTEMPTED PENALTY GOAL Wests Tigers
Marshall misses a penalty goal just from half time. A worry for the Tigers with Hodgson unable to take the kick, and appears to be limping.
Wests Tigers 16-4

HALF TIME.

cheers ink.

22 straight, tigers should ensure he gets the record, by letting him only take conversion attempts from right in front.
