And how he could have done with one.

We've got a similar thread going on Southstander, our pack or should that be pack's also looks very impressive

Not good at all for training/games/tactics or organisation. In contrast our smaller neighbours played the same 6/7 combination in 24 out of 31 games (both of them recognised halves) and used one other player for the remainder. Many mistakes were made by the coach but the half back problems were a key issue mostly beyond his control.

that's not strictly true, Thorman and Horne were relatively injury free all year!

With you on this one. On the plus side we have more quality and aggression and providing we get a normal level of injuries, more competition for places. However, it will take time to gel and we have the same coach as the last 2 seasons where we finished 11/12 and 12/14. It's OTT to expect O'Meley and Fitz to create a huge improvement. I'm excited to see the new players, but have no real expectations for next season.

Fair point about Thorman and injury. His form was terrible and he ceased to become a viable proposition in any position let alone at half back. Horne was physically fit to go on the field but a shadow of his former self in all ways possibly due to his previous injury and illness. His form next season is still a big worry IMO as he needs to be a lot lot better.

I'll do it for you
