I think Horo has had a slow start with some pluses but more things to improve. It happens with new signings sometimes. It takes time to adjust.
His tackle success % is the lowest of all the forwards. I'm almost tempted to say the missed tackles stat needs a recount it is so high, but at the moment he is reading 16 missed and 96 completed.
His attack is better with an average gain of 5.96 metres which is only ok but ok.
He's made 2 errors with the ball and given 4 penalties away.
In summary I think it's a "Could do better" report.
But I've seen him do better so I think he's worth pursuing.
Stats sometimes hide players being targeted or players having to cover other weak defenders so is not the only consideration and he has only played 3 games so far so let's see how he develops.
So before yesterday he'd hardly made an error or given a penalty away. There's no doubt though after yesterday he could do better and as a guy coming into a new side, I'd expect him to gradually settle in more and improve. Saying that I wouldn't be surprised if next game CC may get Batchelor in for example. Just to say if you play poor and you can lose your place because we've got these young guns on your heels, just to keep the players on their toes.
