Quote: Jake the Peg "Be interesting to see if horne is more effective with some decent coaching. Looking back at old dvd's, his kicking was much better around 2005/6. I also think our kickers have suffered due to poor ball from acting half since swain retired'"
Completely agree on all points - was a criticism of the lack of ideas rather than Horne himself. Also, with Danny Nicklas reportedly the standout in training, and Ellis in the mix, it will be interesting to see whether the competition for places notches him up a gear.
Looking forward to seeing what Seymour has to offer.
Position I'm probably most concerned about in terms of cover is fullback. McKinnon's not got a perfect injury record and AFAIK and from what Gentle's said, presumably the cover is Jack Briscoe? Hopefully it won't happen (obviously), but if the halves are all going well, wonder whether he would use Horne at FB were Mckinnon injured.
