Bang on,he's an effective runner ,certainly played some of his best rugby in this role in 2006

wouldn't say hopeless, he put some hard work in today, but an in form Tickle will probably replace him (judging on what we've seen of him so far).

Different positions, don't see what Green has to do with Tickle's return. Galea should be the one who is worried.

Horne was excellent today, and it boils down to the simple fact that the job he was given was one he is good at; run with the ball. Keep up performances like today (with a bit of improvement too, he did still make a few errors IMO), and he could be a good foil for Holdsworth. After all, he probably is the only halfback we've got who can run with the ball well.

Whilst I am one of those who thinks Seymour has been harshly done by by fans and think he can perhaps consider himself unfortunate for being dropped after 1 game, I have less issue with it with him being replaced by another halfback. My big concern was that he would be replaced by Heremaia.

Horne was outstanding, constantly broke the line and posed a real threat with the ball in hand. His best run came from a peach of a ball from Westerman.

I think it came about due to Holdsworth being allowed to make all the play and Horne was given the role of running the ball and using his short kicking game.

Don't think it's the end for Seymour though, form and injuries will dictate that. Heremaia showed today he is a much better hooker than SH, his skills are superb at 9.

Anyone know why Holdsworth was taken off? Was it just because the game was already won at that point?

Gentle said on the radio afterwards it was just to give him a rest as we've got a short turnaround for Saints.

Just resting them for friday with a short turnaround Gentle said on Radio. Horney was outstanding best games he has had for years, with the shackles been taken of him and Holdsworth doing the organising and kicking he could play his own game.

Yeh thought it would be, cheers for that mate.

Thought RH cemented a starting slot for saints on that performance, for the first time is a long time he had no pressure, nothing expected of him and he looked so laid back, and the thing that stood out was how much time he made for himself just like the old days, he frightened bradford to death everytime he got the ball...
well done RH you look a class act alongside holdsworth ...

What was really pleasing for me was the way the full team ran over to Horney when he put Pitts over. seems like a really good team spirit.

Its once a season more than the " Seymour being excellent" thread though.
