There was some strong debate on and around the latest podcast regarding this.
Who is the clubs greatest fullback? Hodgson or Tedesco?
Wests Tigers Podcast - Talking everything Wests Tigers since 2018!
I'll take Hodgo from 2005. His ability to back-up the attack up the middle of the field is something we haven't had since. His goalkicking was phenomenal too at nearly 82%. But based on their NRL careers, I rate Teddy higher.
Have to agree, if you are looking at complete NRL career you can't go past Teddy, however career as a WT, than its Hodgo for me.I'll take Hodgo from 2005.

If you are talking Wests Tigers greatest ever fullback than it is Hodgo for me as he was the better Wests Tigers player.
Teddy went to another level after he left the Wests Tigers and I have him as the better overall player though.

Easy... Wests Tigers Premierships - Hodgo=1; Teddy=0
There is no debate as far as I see it. Hodgo is the man.
comparing fullbacks hands down tedesco is by far the superior fullba k to Hidgo absolutely no question.
From a wests tigers perspective Hodog was part of a premiership winning side and tedesco was not so technically Hodgo
