Hall is a great winger, one of the best. Right now he is better than Charnley. He is so safe and can finish really well. He has size, power and speed.

Could Hall beat a man like Charnley does though? Like in the QF?

Charnley has got the better of Hall in their last few meetings. It will be interesting to see how Charnley develops.

Lets assess the debate better when Charnley has been playing first grade for 5 years? Was Hall as good as Charnley after just one season? Not a chance.

Quote: Odem " Was Hall as good as Charnley after just one season? Not a chance.'" depends what you mean by 'after just one season', I guess If you were to look at their stats for their first full seasons, Hall probably had the better year superleague.co.uk/statistics_pla ... eason=2012 but Hall was introduced more slowly into the league, after less time in the Rhinos academy both seem like special talents though, and I would have both playing for england when the internationals come about fwiw

Hall also started playing league relatively late. I said somewhere else on here its Briscoe that ought to be most worried by Hall/Charnley, as Hall can play either wing. I hope they both get better. I for one loved seeing Hall score those tries for England last year. It'd be fantastic to have wingers on both sides who are massive threats.

it's not fair to compare 2 young guys' first full-season stats? ok.

Charnley is a class act, but he has to improved tenfold defensively to take the next step.

He started to improve his defence big time at the back end of last year and has taken that through in to this season.

It helps not having Deacon and Joel Tomkins inside him though.

i bet it does!

id say after last night that a certain 'best centre in super league' Ryan Atkins and 'hes better than Tomkins' Richie Myler did themselves no favours

Atkins yet again showed himself to be very overated and a flat track bully. He is very athletic which makes him look great against poor players but he has poor RL skills for a centre and when he plays against half decent players and teams he does nothing and is exposed time and again.

Who on god's earth said he was?

Absolutely nobody, yet another Tomkins myth.

I bet you can't find a single quote from a fan saying Myler is better than Tomkins.
