Didn't Radford or AP mention bringing a specialist kicking coach in during pre-season?

As most of the people that spend half their life on here think my post is totally ridiculous...can I ask.. Do you honestly think that Richard Horne is the man we should have at six. And is he capable.. With his team mates to bring us success?

I personally think we could, and should do a lot better than having him at 6

Seriously you think Horne is good enough?? He hasn't been for six years!! Apart from 2 months last year

rlYes.rl

I think he's good enough, but what do I know?

he's very consistent - he's been posting rubbish since post no.1

He's played practically his entire career at halfback. He got a CC winners medal at halfback. He appeared in a GF at halfback. And as a matter of fact he [idid[/i play at halfback for GB.

Since you couldn't even get a simple fact right I think we can all safely ignore your tripe now.

Do you seriously think he is the way to take our club forward at this time?

He is an able solution to what we have to work with until the young lads are ready to step up or until a better replacement can be found/signed.

I think the op is just having a temper tantrum, seeing as we failed to sign world class sixes that are llining up to come to the uk, he needs someone to blam

Up until his injury at magic, richard horne was playing his best rugby for years! Was even one of thedform halves in the league at the time

Wasting your breath, he's from Hull. Ergo his position is unassailable. If he was Aussie, he'd be hounded out. Yeamans the same.

Short bursts of good form are not enough. But the LOCAL brigade love them.

This is the Hull Daily Mail comments section and I claim my £5.

Which other SL team with top 8 aspirations would pick Horne at halfback? Not many.......

The sad thing is hes the best we've got. Wonder what odds I'll get for Hull not kicking a 40/20 for the entire 2014 season!

Azza got 2 last year, Horney 1, Houghton 1. And we're bringing in a new half too.

Not that the squad numbers mean a thing anyway to be fair, especially this season it looks more "political" to me rather then an actual statement of intent, Lineham will not play left wing for example.

That said though, if Horne and Miller are our first choice 6 and 7, I really worry about our long range kicking game, both can put neat little attacking kicks but I think are lacking in this department, and arguably the most important attribute for a modern halfback, remember how poor we were in this department in the Agar days, think this was something we improved greatly under Gentle.
