in my opinion thorman is a gonna at the end of the season...he has been signed as a stop-gap....his ball in hand is not that great but his kicking game is ok, better than what we had last year, unless dykes was playing...we need an organiser and thorman isnt the answer to our problems im afraid...cant see us signing anyone from the uk, due to the fact athat there aint that many good 7's who are available....so its down under we go, hopefully signing someone with quality...any thoughts on half-back signings??? realistic ones only though please...as we aint going to be signing lockyer,marshall,cronk,thurston,kimmorley.....

I really hope so. He is useless with ball in hand and his kicking game is very hit and miss. |

I think your assessment of Thorman is probably a fair one. I still would like to see a few more games with him developing his partnership with Horne behind a team that isn't coughing up the ball so easily before I can fully agree though. I also agree with another poster who said that Horne and Thorman are playing left and right side of field which makes that partnership harder to develop - so maybe I won't see any improvement there after all.  |
