| Quote krisleeds="krisleeds"Agreed.
The reality is that if were unable to offload the likes of Walters, Mullally, Handley etc - we're probably unable to fit another high paid player under the cap (Ikahihifo etc)
Therefore the sensible thing to do would be to look at the likes of Donaldson, who i think was pretty good in his early days playing at Bradford with Whitehead (?) - as a stop gap.
If he proves himself, great. If not, no great shakes - a la Luke Thompson.'"
Donaldson was never as good as Whitehead, even in their early years. However he gives 100% and is a brave as they come but IMO is too lightweight to make enough impact. He's heaps better than Walters though.

Not for me. Both at their peak you could see the fear in Les opposite number at times that never was there for Hall. Hall has been an absolute gem of a winger and will go down as one of the best ever, but I think Les pips him.

| Quote xparksider="xparksider"Sometimes players are thought average or not SL standard until they join the right team/coach. McShane and Amor for example. For some reason they didn't click at Leeds. (I was always a McShane fan).'"
True, the Murray pack wasn't all superstars, but the likes of Farrell & Fleary certainly bought into what Muzza wanted and formed a formidable unit. Hopefully Furner can engender a similar spirit.

Its close. If Hall has a good couple of years in the NRL he takes it. His international record as a winger stacks up against anyone. Great winger big Les mind, on his day unstopable.

| I'd take Vainikolo over Hall, at least before his knees gave up. Take the blue and amber specs off.

| Hall just edges it for me. If big Les had a weakness it was if a low kick was put through just behind him he could resemble an oil tanker slowly turning around !!
Two great players though and thoroughly nice guys too.
