He is not mate, it's just Dazcool, but he also wants us to sign the Johns brothers so i'd move on

To be fair the two huge errors he made were pretty simple balls to handle for most fullbacks. It was daft to stick him in so soon after his recovery but I still maintain that he's a good player but a very average fullback.

You have your assistant coach to blame for Thorman. He was a good player 3 years ago until Sharp shattered his confidence by switching him to fullback. As a result of the two seasons he spent there he lost his mojo ala Fielden, Korkidas etc. Once gone it does not return and I am afraid this is the case with your current number 7.

Believe me he had the odd game for us as bad as he had on Tuesday night but I dont think it was for lack of trying then and I dont think it is lack of trying now. He is a genuine bloke but just simply not good enough these days, a real shame. Celtic bound or lower next year I would imagine.

I know it must p*ss you all off given the state of his performances recently and I would not have him back at the giants either but he probably does not deserve the personal abuse imho.

Thought Berrigan did more playing at SH in the 2nd half than Thorman has done for most of the season.

To be fair to Berrigan,he should'nt have even been playing last night.
He was clearly not fit.
