| Quote Durham Giant="Durham Giant"Thorman was a good player. He lost some of his pace at Huddersfield and then JON SHARP moved him to full back. His confidence was shattered at that point. Huddersfield fans booed him when his name was read out and you could see the confidence drain out of him. When he went back to no 6 we started winning games again.
Then he goes to Hull and ends up at full back. the support he got from your players was shocking NOT ONE Player came back to support or help out the catcher. Thorman dropped them but he tried. The other 12 w'nkers you had who did not even try to help out are the ones who deserve booing.
FWIW he was ok when in the halves, a couple of decent kicks and a lovely cut out pass to send raynor away.
Booing a player when his name is read out as Giants and now Hull fans have done is shocking.'"
Exactly.
If ever there was an incentive not to sign for Hull poor Thorman shamefully is it.

| Thorman as ruined as a player by Jon Sharp.
He was a very good SH. Remember, he was picked for England. He had a very good kicking game. He was an extremely good servant for us - despite what some 'supporters' say.
He was asked to play FB by Mr Sharp. He played OK - until Brough pumelled him with high balls. After that his confidence was shattered - until after JS departed and he returned to SO. He played the season out there and did a good job.
He didn't want to leave the Giants, but strangely followed JS to Hull.
Now, I wonder if you should be picking on Thorman and Agar????
By the way, I was embarrassed by our chants of 'Thorman what's the score'. Totally out of order.

| I think Agar picks him so he has a ready made scapegoat TBH.
Felt for him tonight. Should not have been put in that position.

Totally agree, felt sorry for the lad, he looked liked someone had shot him in the heart, squatting down as Hodgson was preparing to kick for the extr 2 points.
It was a weakness we saw on the first high ball that undid him and the second one was only to follow, clearly the coach should have moved him from full back. What I don't get was where was his support the ball Fulton kicked was so high you had time to stroll back and protect him, but no one to be seen.

feel for the guy , gave effort tonight , no SH ca play behind a pack that is low on confidence and not winning the battle which for me has happened for the majority of the season }
top class halves (burrow , long , pryce ) have top class forwards (peacock , graham , luluai )

| Quote Walter Neff="Walter Neff"Seem to remember that he was a decent player at Huddersfield,,,,Looks like a total loss of confidence.....Could it have been when he went to Aus,,hardly played for the Eels and ended up back over here?'"
Its been said by Ivor and DG already, but Thormans form dropped when Sharp put him at fullback for Hudds, he clearly wasnt up to it for us, and isnt for you.
But once sharp got the boot and our caretakers put him back to stand off his form came back. He has lost some pace which must dent his confidence too, but he was at one time a very good standoff, all he needs, imo, is a coach that can bring that out of him again, JS and Agar arent it.
If the poor guy decides to keep playing, you have got to think some national league team is gonna get a player to take them to the championships.

| I wonder how some of the high handed posters about Thorman would have gone on tonight if they'd been with us.
We got into the player's bar, They all came in after getting changed,
Thorman was last in.
The daughter was having a shirt signing frenzy with our lot.
Saw Thorman and headed for him.....he almost looked surprised to sign it.
FFS.....hes a fookin human being. And one with feelings like you and me.
I've booed him myself.... and it all made me realise what a tw*t I was doing it.
All the way home all I've thought is...ok He might be a pro and getting well paid but nobody deserves that.
How's this affecting him? His other half? I know I wouldnt want it.
