Joel Hodgson

The talented half back joined the Falcons' professional squad in the summer of 2010, having come through the club's academy.

Born and raised in Newcastle, Hodgson represented England Under-18s as a scrum half, but played fly half for his school as RGS Newcastle reached the 2010 final of the Daily Mail Schools Cup at Twickenham.

Hodgson made his first team debut as a replacement during the Falcons Amlin Challenge Cup victory over Bourgoin. And it was not long before the youngster announced himself on the big stage, adding his name to the score sheet courtesy of a touchline conversion, to the delight of the North-East crowd.

Putting pen to paper on a new contract in the summer of 2011, big things are expected of Hodgson as he continues to hone his talents on Tyneside.
