For what its worth, I often spend many months away from home , and if im honest i Always get homesick , However this has never stopped me from " Cracking" on and getting on with the job , , The lad would not be human if he wasnt !
Just one of those things ! Doesnt mean he doesnt want to stay , and make a success of his bulls career which i suspect he will , hope hes playing this week !

I had a guy next to me at the game moaning about Herbert's kicking game. I mentioned the fact he's been injured for the last month and he responded "Don't give me that"

Stupid response really, as a kick will pressure the hamstring if you're going to get any force behind the kick.

So, I'd put Herbert's less than brilliant kicking down to being a little gun shy and having a bit of ring rust. I'm sure as the weeks go on he'll improve and more so as he forms a partnership with Briggs.

It was good to have an actual half back of the field for the first time in nearly a year. It certainly helped Kearney as he wasn't needed to shoulder as much responsibility and was able to be more expansive.

That can certainly effect someone's kicking game.

I had a guy next to me saying exactly the same thing. I said "he hasn't played for a month the lads bound to be rusty". Hamstrings can feel fine but one over extension and ping.

Overall he played well, yeah a couple of kicks weren't brilliant but again that's time. As above he was involved in those two tries and gave some great ball out. Looked to be blowing out of this at the end of the game. Can't wait to see him link up with Briggs

Having and extra kicker on the field always helps anyway as your opponents can never be sure just who is going to get the ball for the kick, which makes it more difficult for them to close the kick down.
