I'm bored of trying to make you see sense but obviously it's too hard for you. Like I have already said I do rate Horne but not as a creative player, and neither do many other people on this thread.

Some people just don't have a clue!

couldnt care less what you or the others think, i have my own views and i have been watching FC 38 of my 46 years thanks for the concern though.

Whats any of that got to do with how utterly crap Thorman is at 7? He is beyond rubbish with the ball in hand and he has 1 good kicking game in 5. Its not really Hornes job to be creating loads of trys. Its his job to use his footwork to creat gaps and to back up breaks and put the odd kick in. He needs a top quality 7 to partner him, all this talk of Horne not creating much is a red herring.

but Horne isnt creative enough so they say

Have to say i agree, but he is a good player. he just dosn't have the instinct of a half back.

If you read the other post of the poster you quoted , He tends to think the same.

Atleast your starting to see sense now.





Anyways as you said it's boring now and there is no convincing you!

im opinionated as you will have gathered.

I personally think Richard Horne would be the best full back in the country if were ever brave enough to put him there. Not going to happen this season as Reardon will play there now i guess.

Not creative as a half back but his running game would suit full back far better. great catcher of ball and would be running at broken lines as opposed to fully set defence when he's at 6

I'd like to see 2 different half backs from whiting/lee/washbrook/berrigan instead of horne and thorman

I agree. FWIW I'd like to see Horne at FB next season with two new half backs.

We tried R.Horne at FB a few seasons ago and his game was pretty much the same as it is now but with a slow ball return.

For me he is an out and out 6. The main problem as i've raved on about time and time again is you can't expect players to create when their team mates don't give them options. With space to move Richard Horne is one of the most devastating Stand Offs in this country.

Once we stop playing with an acting half back, two distributers and 10 props we might get to see some effective plays.

In addition i believe if Horne had been playing full back he would now be regarded as the best ever hull number one in front of kemble, keegan, woods etc

if we'd signed top quality half backs in his career to go along with the top drawer 9's such as jackson, swain and berrigan we would have a trophy cabinet bulging at the seams. all the great sides have the spine of the team (1, 6, 7, 9 ) laden with top quality
