We have been crying out for halves all season so to me there is not a chance that Horne will play fullback and rightly so as he is not that good there anyway.



Hall did a good job against Wire.

Whereas Horne is a top fullback is he?



Hall was fine against Wire.

Houghton needs spelling at 9.

I agree I would start with Berro and bring Houghton on against a tired defence. Houghton's come on loads this season but to keep expecting him to play 80 mins is silly imo. I think it's shown in the last few matches that it's not the way to go.

In a no pressure game were he was seldom tested. We all know Hall has the skillset but what he doesn't have is the mentality and IMO he would crumble on Saturday.

I'd be staggered if Horne played full back after all the talk of him and Longy only playing together four times so far.

Although I would'nt want it, I can see people's views on having Horne at F/B. The risk on playing Hall is high and Horne would theoretically be a safer bet.

But, would you want to break up the possibility of Long/ Horne partnership?

I would put Berro on the bench and put him on late like against Saints - a great move.

for me id have horne at fullback to big of a game to have hall at fullback he is just a total liability for this game id go with the safer bet.

not sure about the left wing yeah lyne has played well for the last couple of games but this is a massive game and i would be tempted to play hall on the left wing, cusack for me just to miss out but im pretty sure he will be playing

This is entirely the point. He didn't have one difficult high ball to take under pressure against Wire - something those who are saying how well he did seem to forget. They missed a trick in not exposing him (maybe because Briers wasn't playing). I don't think Leeds will be so kind and we could be in for a long night. He has had the odd decent game there in the past, so he might surprise us. It's a huge gamble though, given some of the nightmares he's had at FB and his mental weakness when he makes an early mistake.

He might not be [ithat[/i good, but he's a better bet than Hall. He could still play as a halfback in attack anyway.

Horne and Long will be the halves.

You don't know this. Anyway since when has Horne been Mr safety at fullback.



Horne should and will play at 6.
