Rob Horne forced to retire...

[Chief Pete]

Saints centre forced to retire due to the injury he sustained against Tigers last week, he's suffered life changing nerve damage to his right arm, very sad news...

Really sad news,
Shows how the game really is a game of seconds/inches, such an unfortunate accident

Hopefully the talk of life changing is due to his forced retirement and not lasting problems away from the sport

Echo above Nephew who works at Saints told me a really great bloke as well.
Hope all goes well in future for him.
Guess our new coach needs to find us a NZ centre now but at least there will be a fair bit of cash to dangle.

This is a nice touch and good on Tigers fans for also wanting to see it happen.
