Wests Tigers is delighted to announce the appointment of former premiership-winning fullback Brett Hodgson as Assistant Coach for the next two seasons.
Hodgson returns to the club after spending two years as head coach of Hull FC in the English Super League, and more recently an assistant coach with the Wallabies.
His appointment completes an extensive recruitment process, both in Australia and abroad, which included interviews with seven other highly qualified candidates.
Wests Tigers Head Coach, Benji Marshall, says it’s exciting to have Hodgson returning to the coaching staff.
“Brett has experience both as a head coach and an assistant coach, across both codes, and he will be a great addition to our coaching team,” Marshall said.
He is honest, hardworking, and has a great knowledge and feel for the game.

Hodgson says he’s eager to return to the club and wants to make a difference.
“I’m very excited to be working with Benji and the coaching staff to deliver a high-performance program,” said Hodgson.
“We have an outstanding group of young, talented players, and the squad will be strengthened with the addition of some high-quality new signings.
I’m looking forward to contributing as we build a successful future for this great club.

Pre-season training for next season will commence in the first week of November.
