When we signed Berro he was a current Australian International.
He was, the last game he played, prior to being dropped due to his SL announcement he started for Australia at Centre, spent a short spell at 6, moved to 9 and then back to Centre IIRC he was then taken off injured.
Berrigan was on the bench, Was right about him losing hooking role to Smith though if its worth half a point.

A short-term sticking plaster on a long-term gaping wound. If the 1 year deal results in us using both his and Dykes' wages to get in the scrum-half we need for 2010 then it's as good as we can hope for. Viewed on its own, yet another in the growing list of underwhelming Hull FC signings.
good player, i can see why he only signed him for 1 year, because next year we bring the big guns over, i can see todd byrne and/ or webster going if offers come in, thorman covers all backs and has a good goal and free style kicking game, this allows some pressure to be took off tickle, i would now like to see the backs
No shadow of a doubt this signing has come through Jon Sharp, but I think its a very smart signing when you look at the injury crisis we've had this year.
He can cover 1, 6 and 7, all positions which we've had major injury problems at this season so his utility value will be highly anticipated.
FWIW I think we should go with...
6. Horne
7. Thorman
Either Dykes or Webster has to go, and tbh i'd rather it was Dykes, we'll get more game time from Webster and he isn't on the quota!

We still need a new centre though imo!
rich horne would be a world class centre.. he has everything you need as a centre , pace passing and tackling... also i think thorman would be great partner with dykes and horne outside them both would be fansastic
imo thorman will be back up 7,6 and 1 in that order. he isn't better than tony or byrne at full back, horne at stand off or dykes at 7 but no doubt someone will get injured so he'll give us good cover.

I'd have me in front of Byrne at FB, he offers nothing from there IMO.
Should be either used as wing cover or shipped off (if possible)
