Craig Hall : Sat Jan 24, 2009 8:56 am  

I'm not quiet about the fact that I really rate the guy and really beleive that if he's given the patience Yeaman was given he will become international class.

A couple of stats from last season...

Played 22 games
12 at Centre
3 at FB
1 at Centre
1 at Stand Off
5 on the bench.

Scored 13 tries

6th in Clean Breaks stat (5 from top)

Its rumoured (and it is only a rumour) that Agar is not his biggest fan.

Just wondered what other people thought of him? Is it last chance saloon for him already? Should he be given an extended run in the right centre position?

Great maths, Would never have known that....

I do however also rate Craig Hall think given the time and patience in one position will take his development that bit further to as you say maybe international class, at the end of the day you cant argue with the stats!

I meant 5 clean breaks from top spot not 5 places.

Just to add the leader Scott Donald played 24 full games in one position.

Rate Hall very highly, and this is a big year for him.

One of our best attacking weapons, just needs to improve his decison making and strenght (which hopfully he has done in the summer), we have know other player who can score trys out of nothing like he does.

He is still young. Very excited about the prospect of him and Briscoe in the team this year.

If the rest of the squad were following the coaches requests then its the coach that wants shafting after some of the performances

like you, I only know what I hear, there must be some reason why Hall (it would appear) has fallen down the pecking order, I just hope everyone concerned is working together to sort it out as Hall is a natural talent.

too weak, cant tackle, mickey poor decision making, selfish and always attempts the superstar play. id love hull to play against a side with him in it
