Think people are being quick to jump on Horne because he had a bad game tonight after signing a new deal. Yes, he was poor, but halfbacks will always struggle behind such a badly beaten pack, particularly one whose strength has always been his footwork over his organising or handling. Obst disappointed me more tonight, even before moving to hooker. At least Horne looked to try and do something, for much of the opening stages Obst seemed content mainly to spectate, or just move the ball on aimlessly to the next man in the line.

I'm undecided myself, but his comment was bordeline insane. We've given Richard Agar two contracts in the last 4 years to put his comment in perspective.

Horne's not an organiser, he's a running 6. I'll personally judge the decision on his deal when seeing him as a 6 alongside Seymour when he's fighting for his spot with Obst, Nicklas and Ellis.

If Agar is still in charge next season..Horney will not be fighting for his spot

We've give a player who hasn't been fit for ages , Can't kick , Lost a yard or two in pace , And still has injury doubts over him a 2 year deal . Feck me , This club is in decline.

obst has been very ineffective for a while now great when 1st came . horne pleased he signed again but should of been for a year , unless someone leads him around the park is very ordinary . having said that the pack were well beaten . still expect different next week and a win

So were are all these world class half backs that we are supposed to sign, who are off quota, will come for no money and be happy to sit in the stands when one the other world class half backs is playing? In case you havnt noticed there arent any half backs out there that tick these boxes. I think weve done good to sign a good aussie half back (seymour) and sign a young and promising english half back (ellis). Its alright saying what we should do, but being able to do it is another thing.

Our pack got demolished tonight,we got dominated in nearly every collision, consequently this resulted in a very slow play the ball , which meant the Leeds defense was set at every tackle,you could of had Thurstan behind that pack and he'd of done FUUCK all.

agree with everything said there, we were very soft and when you considering our pack is better then theres certain players have to start aiming up

For those who ask 'do I mean it?'

YES.... Richard Horne is shiiiiiiiite!!! I'll give you that noone had a great game tonight but Horne's awful kicking put us under ridiculous amounts of pressure, not passing the ball when you're 5mtrs out with 3 players to his right and being consistently cack constantly!!

He's played well since we announced Ellis and Seymour cos he knew his career was on the skids, now he's gone back to being standard Richard Horne!!

Next week our season is over with trash like that in our side!!

This is all before our selfish players refuse to come and greet their fans in the players lounge!!

where do i start, our forwards were very poor and every time horney got the ball he was surrounded and had to get away rushed kicks. horney is not s%ite but was poor tonight along with 16 other players and 1 member of the coaching staff.

Absolute bullsheeet!! Obviously you never went.... If any good halfback had the time on the ball the Horne got tonight we'd have won!! He never once got caught after the kick!!
Highlighted by the fact that Westerman took over late on and did three kick better than Richard Horne's full game!!!

I think he meant that you're posting like you're either drunk or seriously daft.

i was his biggest critic for the first few weeks of this season, but, believe me, he'll get your boys around the park, no problem.
