| G.Horne is someone who brings very limited attacking abilities and large inconsistancies in defence to the table. Imo he is a shocking centre and its ridiculous that Whiting was dropped for him, and it will be be the same if Hall doesn't replace him when he comes back from Widnes

He's an average squad player, behind Whiting and Lee by some distance IMO. We can do without him quite comfortably.

Exactly, never thought I'd ever see Graham Horne been described as excellent. He wouldn't even be here if his last name wasn't Horne imo.
That said, he'll make a decent signing for a team like Wakefield/Salford/Hull KR/Celtic

I'd agree, i do however think that his performances this season have justifed him starting. I also think that some on here are going way over the top with the negativity around his performance vs Leeds. He played opposite Senior who was on fire as Clarky said. I also think that Raynor was at fault more so that Horne for anything in the game but he seems to avoid any critiscism.
Graeme probably shouldnt be at the club for next year but for this year i think he is doing a great job in the centre for us. (he even put his winger away a couple of times)
I'd still rather play Hall there but Whiting should not be used as a centre, he should play at 13 or even 6.

Pretty much agree with this. I think Raynor's all round game is nowhere near as good as before the toe injury, when he was probably the best winger in the comp.

Will be interesting to see what happens with him. Think he will come back stronger next season but with Calderwood and Briscoe as options on the wings too he may come in for some tought competition when/if we ever get a fully fit squad.

I disagree, in the centres there is little to choose between Horne and Whiting. In the backrow then Horne is better although in the 6/13 role Whiting is better.
Up until recently Horne has played fairly well although against Senior he was left wanting, not the first or last player though in that respect. There is not room for both him and Whiting though and I would probably go with Whiting, just!

Couldn't agree with you more. Why can't the coaches see it?

I think defensively he was left wanting but I think he did well going forward. Does that mean Senior is also wanting in defense?

| If we didn't have so many injuries he wouldn't be playing. he was supposed to be going to donny on loan before the season started. We need to trim these type of players from the squad

Agree, but on the flip side its beneficial having them about when we get a dozen injuries.

If we have a squad to cover for the worst possible scenario we'll continue with an average squad
