I agree Miller will get his chance on preseason form I think Radders has got selection right, miller will have to wait his turn and when he gets it like Shaul take it and make the coach keep him in the team its down to him my only worry is with miller not been able to get game time at Donny will he be rusty, loan perhaps, but he is not rubbish young and inexperienced and maybe over paid by a coach who was never a number one is my take on it

All depends on how you look at things, IMO. I posted on here at half time that Rankin needed to see more of the ball, as the reason he looked 'anonymous' (if you want to go that far) was because we mainly went down the other side (he did look pretty good when he did get his hands on the ball though, IMO). So yes, you could criticise Rankin for not getting involved enough, but I personally thought it was more disappointing/worrying that Horne saw much more of the ball yet created quite little. The try he bombed was also very poor play when we had 3-on-1 IIRC.

Horne also gave away more penalties than anyone else and was 2nd in missed tackles, so he was one of the main culprits in the two worst aspects of our play.

Whilst on the subject of missed tackles, a total of 15 from Horne, Crooks, and Lineham.

Rankin also put a try on a plate for Shaul with a superb kick thru, unfortunatly it wasn't scored.

The good thing is we've got 3 halfs and a good prospect coming through. At this moment in time Miller will have to wait and hope when the opportunity arises he takes it.

Precisely.

I agree in the main, but still think that Horne created little in the first half. I know what you mean about the halves not having a lot to work with, but I just thought of the 2 (in the first half at least) Rankin looked more dangerous on the occasions when he did get the ball and more likely to make something happen. Horne seemed to do a bit more of Holdsworth's speciality just moving the ball along the line almost aimlessly.

I'd be more worried if we had been heavily on top and he'd been like that, so let's just see how he does next week.

My personal opinion is that Horne was the best half back we had at the club last year so for me it's his place to lose. He made mistakes on Friday night, sure, but on the other hand he scored a try and created one so I think he did enough to keep his place.

Miller is one for the future for me. Looked promising and full of potential last year but certainly not the finished article yet. His time will come and he will get his chance.

We scored 8 tries, 5 of which our halfs either scored or had the final pas/kick. I really don;t think half back was where had problems on Friday

dont shoot me down but heard miller could be on his way after a little dust up in wier bar.
not the greatest source though

The only flaw in this rumour is that the Wier bar has been closed for 2 months.

That's probably why I haven't said it was, then.

i just got told a bar in hessle and thought that lol

Your such a details person!
