I've been to several of the pre-season training mornings at Gosch's and I come away thankful that we have Hore as a backup. There are days when I have him in the side. He is better now than he was first time round. He is a professional in everything he does. He makes it difficult for many of our forwards with a full set of defensive skills. He can play on talls or smalls. Don't write him off. I won't be surprised if he gets games in 2025. He is legitimate depth. Every successful team needs them.

Me too!

Not as involved as he was before protocols. Seemed to be cruising rather than shooting for a spot. If he regains the intensity in coming days, it will be a sign he is ready.

They often don’t take the shot, as a new ball is put back into play immediately.

Unfortunately, he is so tall and I was in the gutter… I couldn’t make eye contact, his nostrils did flare though!

He was very good today. Seems to have developed his motor, and is now always on the move. Sure by foot and focused.
