Across 42 appearances as a replacement, Horne has shown a consistent ability to make his minutes count, scoring 12 tries at a rate that reflects genuine threat around the breakdown and at the line. His carrying numbers are modest per game, which is expected for a bench role, but peaks of 11 carries and 79 metres in a single match indicate he can take on a much larger share of the workload when called upon. His tackle count adds a defensive dimension that goes beyond what many impact replacements offer.
