| Pleased about Horney going to f/back, he is excellent under the high ball and appears to have got a bit of his speed back this season.
Maybe there are some legs in the Finch rumour

| I think this is a good decision all round. Horne is not the player he was, but is still a good SL level fullback, and is a good runner in broken play. Moving to fullback will also potentially extend his SL career by another few years.
It now gives the club the opportunity to bring in a top class no6, and add much needed pace and creativity in to our halves.

| Horne to FB, Seymour to SO and a new scrum half sounds good to me though im not convinced Hornes body could cope with the rigours of being a full back.

| I could be a good move for Horne as well. Probably a less physical workload at fullback may keep him from picking up any more injuries . Good move imo.

Not this again. I've been one of Horne's staunchest defenders and I'm not even [ifrom[/i Hull. Possibly people just have a different opinion of him to yours?

| One thing people seem to be forgetting is how much we've missed Horne's defence since he's been out. Playing at FB we'll have to find someone else to do that defensive work and it doesn't look like either Niklas or Ellis are up to it ATM.

| Don't know how you can say Finch is over rated. Arguably the best 6 in the league.

There are a few things we have missed,(mainly the meters he makes) however it is not his defensive work, he has played 1 more game than Ellis and he has only made 28 more tackles

Most, where do you get that from ?
I have read a few who are still undecided, me included however most are aware it is early days and the best maybe yet to come.

| Finch was brilliant against us, everything went through him and he create so much space and time it was unreal. Like I said Finch is a great player and regularly runs the show, would be a brilliant signing for us only downside is his age. But someone like Finch I don't think that it should stop us this time around.
Seymour is getting abit of stick, but imo he has done good and we shouldn't be looking to get rid. We finally have a 7 who can string more than 2 games together, isn't held together by tape and has a good kicking game etc. He's 27 and had multiple half back partners. Been a good signing for me and look forward to seeing him for atleast a couple more seasons with Hull FC.
