How did Thorman play : Sun Feb 15, 2009 8:18 pm  

he was one of my favourite players at the Giants so would be interested to know how he is doing

personally thought he did pretty well,seems to be enjoying playing for the mighty fc,his style of play looks to complement richard horne who has a mint running game,not getting to carried away but encouraging signs at this early stage of the season

I thought he did well. The whole team had a good night so from that point of view he didn't stand out. Some of his kicks were first class.....something we haven't seen in a while down the KC stadium. Thorman and Horne showed all the signs of developing a good half-back pairing....something else we haven't seen in a while down the KC stadium.

Promising start for Thorman on Friday. The odd poor kick but certainly signs that together with Richard Horne we could have the makings of a more than useful half back pairing.

He had a promising start to his HFC career. Once he settles in I've no doubt he'll become even more effective and influential.

Thanks for asking.

We ave a Hudds fan here in Cochrane and he says the same...shame he had to leave u guys and our gain by all accounts.

Love wearing my FC shirt around the town with THORMAN 7 on the back...really winds him up...especially as he is a Canadian copper now...

Keep him fit and he will move us around the park with Horney and Berro....no worries !!!!

only concern I have, having spoken to a few people, are the options he took on occasions, putting a kick in when a pass was on, but that will come with time.

Straight out of the Tommy Lee coaching manual, however it could have being tactics direct from the coach ?

especially in the first half, we had a 5 onto 3 overlap and he kicked and Roberts easily took the ball.
