| Can't say we haven't lacked organisers and a decent kicking game this year, so no arguments on that one, but this rubbish from Rule about him being a good guy off the pitch, yeah right, why was he suspended a couple of seasons ago by Huddersfield following very disturbing night club incidents with females then?  |

I know, but he was with the pre-merger Gateshead's academy before going to Sheffield wasn't he? You've enough homegrown players that it doesn't matter, I just wondered if could if you wanted to. |

| Quote Nemesis FC="Nemesis FC"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!'"
Webster counts on the non-fed and Dykes is twice the player he is. |

Yes. sorry. Thorman is decent player, a bit underrated IMO, experienced and gives Agar some extra options/cover at half back without using another non-fed spot. |

| Quote Kosh="Kosh"So does Horne.
=redFor the last few years Horne, has not been able to control the weighting of his kicking. The result is the ball inevitably goes over the dead in goal line.
You're joking. Aren't you?
Horne has a fantastic step off both feet which he uses pretty regularly.
=redNot a joke at all. If you think Horne has a good step, you have been watching the wrong player. Hornes main attribute is his pace and his support play.
Thorman may be somewhat more creative, but to call Horne "safe yet unspectacular" is frankly incredible.
=redThere are only a very small number of occasions I can recall Horne doing something out of the ordinary (Motu Tonys try against Bradford in the 2006 eliminator for example). Other than that he, for a half back he plays the very safe percentages.
'"
Only my opinions of course. But his safeness is probably the reason he has so many GB caps. |

IMO Horne has got a brilliant step.
Remember about two seasons ago think when we was on that brilliant run of 13 games or what ever. We was playing Salford away and losing, then pops up horney 10metres away under their sticks, runs side steps two players and goes in for the try.
I think he's always side stepping, and usually to great affect. |

| Quote carl_spackler="carl_spackler"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.'"
No offence Carl, but what you hope for and what is a realistic target are two very different things.
The phrase of "Underwhelming" is used virtually every time Hull make an announcement. Are there those out there who seriously expect every signing to be a GB, NZ or Aus international?
So far we have either signed or re-signed Thackrey, Horne (nearly), Calderwood, Crocker and Thorman. All of which have played international RL. Maloney is the best from the NL who we are giving a chance to. I seem to recall that current St'Helens winger, Ade Gardener was signed from Barrow, proving there can be a few hidden gems in the lower leagues. |

Exactly. Though Crocker is the only signing I have been really pleased with when you put all the signings together and think there could possibly be a couple more I think we will have well improved the squad for next season. Which is a big plus for me as I thought we would struggle. 2009 might not be a write-off after all |
