Horne needs to be the cover that can play half back and full back we need an eye on the full back spot though as we need a long term player there. Not sure horne could be our full time full back with his injury rate unless we have a young kid or project coming through.
Horne has a boomerang likeness about him, when the fans are collectively starting to turn on him, and start suggesting he should be moved on. he'll string enough good performances together to silence the critics. having said that i dont think he's had a bad game all season, despite rarely being outstanding. the main problem i see is that we hardly ave the luxury of seeing how he goes in the full back role for the rest of the season before making a decision, because new targets need to be approached earlier than that. Gentle has maybe already got it all worked out based on what he has seen in training.
Full back is gonna be a very hard position to fill next season what with Greenshields, Webb, Mckinnon all going home plus Mcdonnell moving on so moving Horne to full back is a master stroke imo. His body may struggle at times but he'll be better than most teams FBs next season and it leaves us with the option of bringing in another HB which is something far more important to the team and in an ideal world id love Brough back
