The super widget will function with a Road Hog, but only in an "obscure" manner. It will NOT expand the 4 universes of the desk, but you can "double map" the four universes to have them output on both the desk and super widget XLR connectors.
However you CAN use the super widget to expand your universes on a Road Hog Full Boar, Hog iPC, or Hog 3PC. The Wholehog 3 requires an external processor for DMX thus the reason you can not plug a widget or super widget directly into the console.
Also for further clarification about the DP8000. It is always capable of processing 16 universes of DMX, but there are only 8 XLR outs on the unit. You can get to the other 8 via Art-Net, a DP8000 Expander, or by the use of Widgets. In all cases, the DP8000 is still doing the processing and the other items are just providing output.
