has he been missed????

Graeme?

He's a better 6 than Washy so i think we do. It's a shame he got injured when he did as he was regaining a bit of form. Hopefully we'll get to see plenty of our half back partnership in the coming months.

no........richard

I still miss Round the Horne

Horne always adds something to our team. Washy isnt a 6 and Horne gives us a running game. He looked back to his best earlier in the season. Could be a huge addition to our 17 towards to playoffs.

In all honesty.....No. I know he was regaining some form earlier in the season but he's been a player weve been 'carrying' for a while now and it shows with the teams general poor form. If we could get another decent half back in and have Horne, Long and A.N.Other fighting it out i think we would become a lot more consistent. Washbrook is not the answer IMO

He's been injured etc for 18 months with some serious illness/injuries. Carrying is way over the top imo.

I dont. I know hes trying to get on top of his illness but he wasnt all that before that either and apart from a couple of good games prior to his recent injury he has been relatively annonomous whilst playing for a long time. Problem is hes a big earner and has been a very good player in the past so has been carried in the hope that he would rediscover some form and in the process its made us a poorer team. Im not trying to be funny but that is the way i see the Horne situation.

How long is he out for?

The question was - "has he been missed??"

The answer is yes: Yes because we have no one better, yes because he was finding some form and yes because he's an excellent foil for Longy.
Irrespective of what you think of Horney, we are missing him.

He got on top of it for the start of this season and was then asked to play under injections again due to our injuries. I'm confident that when he's back fit he will play a major role in our end of season push. I disagree that he's been carried. More often than not he has been asked to play as the dictating half back due to injuries to other halves and Cooke leaving. Thats not his game.
