Bench hooker - Houghton

Guess you will want to play Cusack and Dowes in the second row and Yeaman and Whiitng on the wings

is he not pivotal enough

FB is Horne's natural position, simple. Don't get me wrong hes an excellent SO but I'd much rather see him at FB, coming into the line as a ball handler whe were attacking (like we have been doing). Hes the safest pair of hands in our team in that position and in recent games has looked faultless, so why move him? I've never really been convinced with Tony at FB, he does a decent job and returns the ball very well, but I fear the worst every time a high ball is hoofed in his direction. I'd like to see Tony used as utility coming off the bench and filling in where needed, I don't think he's got a specialist position and I don't think he's a better FB that Richard Horne, therefore I would keep things as they are, and use Motu off the bench where he offers a lot of versatility and impact.

He's a fulback or a bench hooker, play him anywhere else and you are wasting him

The only time I would want to see Horne at fb is if Tony goes at the end of the season and we sign a 6 AND a 7. Would give us an extra playmaker in the team as Horne would still act as one while attacking. Although I don't think he's that creative really, it would still give us another option has he can pull of some class plays.

For example: Tony leaves

1) Horne
6)New signing
7)New signing
9)Berrigan
13)Washy

what i have highlighted is our problem. Those positions are the spine of your team and u need quality in those positions if u want to challenge.

At 1 point we had FB prescott (might be wrong here), SO Cooke, SH Horne, Hooker Swain and LF Smith

Our backbone/spine is nonexistant down to the player retention/ recruitment over past 4/5 years

If we did sign two new half backs depending who they were, could change the way we play hell of alot. Berrigan is still one of the best hookers in the world and washy is more than capable of creating chances, as he showed against Cas.

A new coach has got to be a main priority, although Hull won't get rid of Agar unless we have another season like the last one.

I'd definitely have Horne over Tony at fullback. Tony is the utility player that was sat under Peter Sharp's nose all the time he was banging on about needing one! Motu was given the fullback shirt to get him to re-sign for us. (IMO). I'd leave Berro at hooker too but Lee and Houghton are doing a good job at the minute.

Motu!

horne at fb........motu tony waste o money...he must have been injured nearly a full season now and what a waste of wages that was

horne

Did we say that about Ritchie Horne last season? I think you know the answer already.

Hindsight's a wonderful thing.
