Good to see Horne showing some form this season. Thought he was head and shoulders our best player on Friday and sounds like he had a good game today in addition to some other good performances earlier in the season. He may not be the most talented 1/2 back in superleague but there is no doubting his commitment to the cause or the effort he puts into the game. Never seen him give less than 100% for the club and I'm pleased he's signed another 12 month extension. Great back up option and we'd have been really stuck this year if he wasn't around.

I look forward to standee's thoughts

He's doing really well, yet again the only recognised have for most of the season so far but he definitely turned it up this year. Even his long kicking game hasn't been so bad, in some games very good. If only he had the pace what he previously had.

He was our best player today for me. Controlled the game and kicked well. Always probing with the ball and defended well. If we want to progress to top 4 then we need better halves than Horne but off the bench as a utility player he would be a great option. Always offers commitment and has been superb over easter.

Said it many times and i'll say it again .. Richard Horne = LEGEND

You’re a rare breed indeed
I really cannot think of anyone else who would be looking forward to Standee’s thoughts (except Standee of course and perhaps his mum). I recon he could do adverts for go compare.

Agree about Horne though!

Richard Horne is Mr Hull Fc: He's a fantastic competitor and a very professional player to boot. So far he has been our best player this season.

It seems to me like his long kicking game has improved this year.

There was one on Friday that he's tried a couple of times this year where he clipped it just over the wingers head and got it to stay in the in goal for us to force a drop out.

I'm looking forward to him and Holdsworth getting games together for the rest of the season.

I'm sure that this is the first year that he has had an injury free pre-season in the last few years, I don't think that is any coincidence to how he is playing, he is an excellent squad player to have.

He'll only play four or five games - held together with tape and bandages. Oh hang on ...

Thankfully we have extra stroung tape and bandages this season

Heard a rumour that Horney is looking to leave as his wife is unsettled due to homesickness. Oh hang on.....

Personally I thought Horne was poor on Friday....

At fullback he let the ball bounce far too often and seemed like he couldnt be d to run it forward at times

Either give it a rest or go back and watch the game again. Head and shoulders above the other 16 in black and white on Friday.

Good game yesterday as well. Without doubt our player of the season so far.

He's Hull FC through and through and is having a great season so far. As has already been said we would have been lost without him this season.

I've never had a problem with him in previous seasons but his form does seem to be better than ever this year. Could it be down to him remaining injury-free or could the fact he wasn't going to be a first choice player anymore (I'm presuming Holdsworth and Seymour were meant to be our first choice halves) have spurred him on to fight for his place?

Then I'd suspect you was the only one in the ground.
Couldn't be bothered to run it?!!!! In an impotent attack I'm sure he made about 3breaks?
Head n shoulders above anyone else! Even had my rovers mates singing his praises

April fools was yesterday. Are you for real? Only threat we had was from Horney. Watch the game again.

Horney was the only one in the derby who looked like he knew what it meant to the fans. Ran his heart out and was my M.O.M

I have to agree with Omne regarding his kick returns and his decision makin at full back.

thank god for that, I thought I was in need of a new pair of glasses....

Good lad is Rich but watching him run nowadays is akin to somebody floundering in quicksand.
Still got more going on upstairs than half our lot put together when on the park.

Horne played OK in the Derby, plenty of effort but as Hutchie has said, some poor elements in the game. He was much better at Wakey yesterday, he and Shaul had good games. Not quite sure about the segragation at Wakey, there fans didn't seem impressed either

Segregation is certainly an issue. Was stood in western terrace with my Wakey sporting mate. He was far from impressed. Equally if I have to pay £20 to stand on that terrace again with only partial views of parts of the game I won't be going again. Dummy spit yes but with family it's a lot of dosh to miss a quarter of the game. I have always stood in north terracing and for the life of me can not recall any trouble so why the segregation after all these years.

I couldn't go yesterday, so listened on Humberside and they were actually complaining that they couldn't see what was happening. The sooner they move to a 21st century ground the better.

Horney was outstanding on Monday. A long time since I've seen a hull half back control a game as well to be honest. Brilliant 2nd half. Regardless of opposition, credit where it's due.

Their ground is shocking isn't it, £22 and if youre vertically challenged yer can't see ewt. Half of the folk round us needed the boxes and crates you used to see fans stood on in the Well !!

Another excellent game from Horne today, particularly his kicking game. In the long term absence of both halfbacks, we're fortunate to have him in the squad.
