If he made two tries, he didn't do 'fook all'.
And he didn't mess up three tries either.

| Quote ="Wellsy13"I'm sorry, but Craig Hall is not good enough. His catching leaves a lot to be desired. His positioning, although improved, is not good. His returns aren't too bad because he is quick, but he gets battered in the collision every time and it takes an eternity for him to get a PTB because of this. The rare times he does do something exceptional, you can count on him doing something to feck it up because he gets too excited and ejaculates or something, leading him to do something stupid like run into touch, throw a stupid pass or not even pick the ball off the floor.
I just don't think he'll ever be good enough. He can be exceptional at times, but that doesn't make up for the MANY flaws in his game that I don't think we will be able to improve.'"
Hall's played only a few games at FB and has already shown improvement as you duly mention. Atleast he does something exceptional in order to mess it up, more then the rest of the team does. The ball off the floor is very harsh, he had to rush for it so that the Salford player didn't get a free PTB as no one else was there.
I think the influence he has on our attack negates a few dropped balls, without him we look like doing all.

Was he the only one?
If not, will all the others miss out on your 17 as well?
How many tries did his errors cost us? More than the two that he was instrumental in scoring?

They only scored three, and one was down to Briscoe, so the rest is simple maths.

Is it better to do something exceptional and then mess it up in such a spectacular fashion that we lose possession, or to do something basic and keep possession? The things that Craig Hall does exceptionally is from chancing his arm and it paying off at times, but the problem is he doesn't know when not to and royally fooks up.
He is not solid enough at FB. Horney is a much better full back, as is Thorman. Unfortunately, that weakens our halves as well. But we have more players that can play half-back better than Hall can play FB.
If there are no changes made after this, and we get stuffed by Rovers, I won't keep coming back from Leeds to watch this rubbish every weekend. If they aren't going to bother, why should I? I don't mind being sh*t. I do mind paying to watch a club that at times doesn't seem to give a crap and doesn't do much to change this.

Hall is the flakiest full back in the competition, bar none. Perhaps because he is our 3rd choice full back, and playing out of position, but these factors will count for nothing on Friday when Cooke/Dobson will ruthlessly exploit him under the high ball as surely as night follows day. Hall made more errors per game last season than virtually any other player (only 2 ahead of him IIRC) and his error rate has been similar in the last few games. He does show some excellent touches and is obviously pacy, but I agree with Wellsy. IMO he's not a first choice SL player.

| Hall wasn't brilliant but he isn't one of the 12 others standing around in the defensive line waiting for the opposition to make their 10 before sticking a hopeful arm out to 'tackle'.

I think it's better to do something exceptional and chance it rather then being like the rest of our team and being dull and just one man rugby drives. Maybe he does make bad decisions at times but that comes from experience, something he has very little of at full back.
I think Hall to 6 and Horne to FB would be a good decison, Hornes got very little creativity in him for mine and could do as much damage as he does at 6 from full back and Hall could do far more at 6.

Have to say it amuses me when folk complain about boring percentage rugby and then we get comments like this.
An easy way to make no errors is to do nothing. Won't win you many games though.

Exactly, people moan about our boring boring rugby yet the one player who does something special is lambasted.

Hudds fans say thorman is one of the worst full backs they've ever had and as for whiting, he's a good player but he has no pace at all and would be ripped to shreds imo.
