owdhammer's is easier to guess than the first. The hooker is in the middle of the front three of the pack, obviously, and expected to pack down 'head to head' and shoulder to shoulder with the opposing front row, plus get the ball back. A useless hooker, once he gets his head down, might as well be given a pillow,so at least he's comfortable when he's asleep !
But a tin hat in darts? Unless it's a reference to not hitting the wire, requiring the man nearest to avoid the rebound, hence not giving the opponent the need for a tin hat, a helmet, to avoid being hurt ?
