You mean the idiot who has you top of the division and playing the best rugby seen at the club since Paul Cooke was there.
its very early season and Horne is still looking at utilising and rotating the squad he has available until he finds his best 17.
Without doubt he will make changes when playing weaker teams in the division and play more of the loan/D/R players when available against the stronger teams.
Hull FC have a mini injury crisis at the moment so the likes of Lane,Downs,Turgut and Logan are not available to you but will be later in the season.
I have said you still need another big front row but if funds are not available to Horne he has to work with what he has and is doing a good job.
Whether you like or dislike the Hull Loans/D/R its the only way you will get out of this division.
You and other posters on here would have a lot more to moan about if you didnt have the Hull connection.

Whats happened to the money they had to fund the signings of the two Alberts that didn't materialize?

Not the most convincing performance .

We weren't great today but we're top of the league.

The brand of rugby we're playing is exciting to watch. We've got some issues that need sorting out but the other 13 teams in the division will have issues too - probably a few more issues than we've got in most cases.

As far as I'm concerned, Richard Horne is doing a very good job and I've got every confidence in him getting the best out of the players we've got. Take Jordie Hedges, for example, he's like a new man this season.

Yeah that idiot.
He has little control over his players if they can kick off like Owen did for instance and does NOTHING about it to the point that the game could have been lost.
Were you there?

He's weak seemples as ....

When we play anyone good we struggle.
Today we played a middle of the table side and struggled.
They looked a better balance than us.
I don't think he knows how fragile we are.
And if he does, apart from cadging Hull players he has little to offer.

And I forgot to say how rubbish our scrum half has been in the last two games ... he needs a the 'idiot' to have a word.

Without the Hull lads we would be very ordinary.

I wasn’t there as away on holiday but is miloudi being played at full back on Hulls orders as that is where they need him ??

Re: Home v North Wales Crusaders Sunday 8th April 2018 3pm : Sun Apr 08, 2018 8:57 pm  

That is his position .

Re: Home v North Wales Crusaders Sunday 8th April 2018 3pm : Sun Apr 08, 2018 9:26 pm  

So what’s Owens position then prop forward, you play them where they do best for the team

What should he have done? Got the shepherd's crook and dragged him off? If we'd then lost the game because we'd got someone on the wing who isn't a winger, or if we'd then got no subs left and got another injury, he'd have equally been declared an idiot. He can't win really, can he?

Yeah get off his ass and tell him to man up and stop giving the ref grief.
That's what!
Is that so hard?
Or he could sit on his ass and let Owen be a prima Donna.
He took that option.

Tony Fisher and Singe would have got the message onto the field.

Do you live in a parallel universe?

A coach is a coach not a bleeding spectator!

I don't think you can play owen anywhere else than full back, he's played numerous seasons with the number 1 jersey at super league level and his reading of the game and positioning are still to that standard, you might be right in saying miloudi fancies himself as a full back but somebody with that talent needs to see the ball more often.
