Carney, Robinson and Brown to fight it out in the halves.

i'd guess carney to start with either robinson or thorman and brown to cover from the centre.

i'd of thought we could of signed ayone from the 3 because huddersfield will want to balance their cap.

Keeping Webster and Dykes would provide adequate cover in the Halves.
Dykes/Webster at 7 . Thorman/ R.Horne at 6.
That would keep Berrigan at Hooker and Washbrook at Loose forward.

Robinson is an out-and-out 7. Brown is just awful wherever he plays.

no side can afford 4 well paid half backs when there short at centre and prop.

Thorman has a kicking game which consists of more than simply belting the ball from anywhere in the field of play over the deadball line.

So does Horne.

Thorman also has a sidestep which Horne doesn't (or chooses not to use).

You're joking. Aren't you?

Horne has a fantastic step off both feet which he uses pretty regularly.

Horne is a safe yet unspectacular player who will rarely come up with a mistake. Thorman has more creativity.

Thorman may be somewhat more creative, but to call Horne "safe yet unspectacular" is frankly incredible.

Carney and Robinson are both Scrum halfs.

Brown is a centre and is not clever enough at SO. Most Hudds fans see Brown at centre or possibly becoming a no 13. I am surprised we have got rid off our only out and out stand off.
