By that rationale wingers should never achieve individual awards.

It's not about workload and industry though. It's about your role and playing your part. Ryan Hall has been a top class winger for years and adds a lot to the team through his role in it. The fact that he doesn't make 30+ tackles and hit ups a match is meaningless.

I'd be interested to know the rationale for that bit of wisdom too!

Well deserved Hall, very industrious and not just a classy finisher as others
have said.

Are there any fears about the NRL coming calling, have Leeds got him on a long contract to ward of the Ozzies?

Well done Ryan, fully deserved.

Signed a contract extension with Leeds in January this year. That deal runs to the end of the 2016 season.

If however he wants to go, then he probably should and I doubt Leeds or the RFL would put up much of a fight to keep him here - it's not as if he plays for Wigan or anything.

IMO i get the impression that he's not interested in a move to Australia. If Briscoe is attracting rumours about NRL clubs being interested i can't believe their isn't any NRL teams who haven't taken a look at Hall especially after his efforts against Australia and Manly in the last 12 months, but he might of told his agent that he's not bothered. It may be the superior competion but living aboard especially the other side of the world doesn't always appeal to everyone (his partner has recently had their first child too) and i get the feeling from hearing him talk before that's he's more than happy to stay playing and living in Leeds. I do honestly think he'll play out the rest or at least the majority of his career at Headingley and that's not just having blue & amber coloured glasses on as i couldn't and wouldn't make the same prediction on some of our other young talents, Hardaker, Watkins, Ward.
