Quote: BraddersFC "Exactly because of what you've just said. He creates 1 or 2 tries for a stretch of 4 or 5 games, and everyone suddenly claims he's "carried us singlehandedly" for the entirety of the year.
I understand that Horne has been brilliant at times over the years, but I'd go as far to argue that Seymour put in the same stretch of comparable performances at the beginning of last year (including Magic Weekend and a few others), yet he didn't get the plaudits that Horne currently is. I put this down the assumption that the majority of Hull fans would prefer Horne to succeed more so than any other halfback, because of his loyalty to the club. This is nothing but blind favouritism.
It's obvious to see that the Wakefield game has kick-started a run of form, but I'd have to say the biggest contribution to that win was Heremaia's influence as halfback, (as he created most of the try scoring opportunities down the left-hand-side with Lineham and Crooks - Horne's contribution being a deflected grubber kick) and not only Shaul's try while we were looking quite shaky, but also the performance and enthusiasm he showed that lifted others in the team.'"
Either unbelievable ignorance, or ridiculous trolling!!!
Best 3 for me so far....
Horne (By a country mile)
Lineham
