Horne for two years is a must, not missed a game this season since he came back and has played well. I'd like to see us go for Luke Burgess. Let Long,Burnett,Lauaki,Phelps and Dowes go. I'm soory men but Turner will never be a six as long as I have a hole in my a**e. Back up centre for me. You have to have Nicklas and Obst backing up Horne for Stand off and Ellis backing up Seymour.

As I see it IMO

1 McKinnon/Whiting
2 Sharp/Lyne
3 Gleeson/Turner
4 Yeaman/Cunningham
5 Briscoe/Briscoe
6 Horne/Obst/Nicklas
7 Seymour/Ellis
8 O'Meley/Burgess
9 Houghton/Heremaia/Obst
10 Moa/Radders/Aldous
11 Manu/Kent
12 Tickle/Green
13 Westerman/Washy

That team should be top 4 minimum. We need a new coach before we can start thinking about that though.

He's played for great britain. Who was the last Hull born half to do that before horne?

Dragging long across from wigan to work with the kids would be a waste of time and money

I thought Sunday showed how much we miss Horne when he isn't on the field and obst looked lost without him.

I'd give horne 2 years on a reduced salary with a view to him getting involved in the coaching

Got to agree there Jake. I thought Horne was instremental on sunday and when hes played full back in previous games weve been clueless. Id get him signed up on the terms you mention too.

Long can go for deffo though

Re: More rumours... : Fri Jun 17, 2011 9:20 am  

seems people think we can get Horne on a reduced wage for 2 years, if we can, then I wouldn't be unhappy.

unless we replace Agar I wont be renewing my season pass, nor will a fair few others.

Looking at our remaining fixtures, I think agar has to significantly improve performances or we could end up out of the play offs. There's ever possibility that we could only win another 2 or 3 matches and even if things do improve it's looking like 7th at best which is a disaster IMO

Still won't sack him though
