I can't see 12 going, 6/7 more like. Also I would not want Rooney, pointless signing imo.

Hope not, where does Horne play? Please don't say fullback and as a centre I am not convinced.

Duggan I would have assuming he has gotten over his injuries and O'Hara I would not bother with. Maloney and Moa would be better options.

I understand your reservations however on this season's form Horne shouldn't be an automatic choice anywhere in the team. Rooney isn't the worlds greatest player but has a semblance of a kicking game and footballing brain.

Don't get me wrong I have always thought he was a decent footballer but not sure where he fits into the side?

Agreed, im not a big fan of Rooney and he isnt the best player in the world but just look at how well he kicked on thursday, if you have the skill to be able to put the ball were you want it at one level you can do it at any, A lot of people dont like it but to be honest with our pack shaping up well and someone with a kicking game like Rooney the boring rugby what we play under Agar would be a lot more effective.

So Horne to centre then or fullback?

Tansey
Raynor
Yeaman
Horne
Calderwood
Rooney
Long
Dowes
Berrigan
O'Meley
Fitzgibbon
Radford
Washbrook

Cusack
Lauaki
Manu
Houghton/Lee/Whiting

Or Horne to fullback, Turner or Whiting to centre and Tansey off the bench in place of Houghton as the hooker/back utility?
