Greame Horne has been our most consistant back all season yet you can't find a place for him. On the other hand Hall, who has been shocking, would keep his place in the starting 13 - interesting.

To be honest i think thats partly it. The way he holds the ball is the way you hold it when your "option" looking, so its easy to get an offload away, or to swerve the body around a defender. These are not things you can generally do with defenders chasing down a kick.

Like i have said before, we are damaging his confidence playing him at FB, get him in the centre with calderwood outside him

Hall has been really messed about by Agar imo, his confidence seems totally rocked. He has gone from a player with undoubted attacking potential (I actually feel he had the potential to be the best attacking English player in the game, to an extent I still do) but the whole dropping incidents last season seems to have knocked him. Also he is inconsistant at fullback but to be replaced there by Thorman must also be a kick in the teeth. Plus the fact that he is always fed a wedge ball from Horne and now every team we play against knows means he must get smashed nearly every set!
If he went to somewhere like Saints before the start of last season he would be looking at England honours for this season

I agree with a lot you say and i am going to defend Craig Hall,the kid is still learning his trade in the game and Agar seems to be killing a raw talent.We all know he is not a fullback so why play him there?.The reason he is going backwards is because agar is not using him to his strengths.Put him back to his natural centre berth or even wing and we should all see a return to confidence in the lad.There are too many on here pointing the finger in the wrong place.

If you are a professional rugby league player, you should be able to catch a high ball, under pressure, 9 times out of 10 no matter what position you play. Whatever is causing him to make these errors is irrelevant, the fact is that he does and should not be used until he can prove his reliability in reserves. It seems he needs to work on his mental strength as much as anything else. I hope as much as anybody does that he realises his potential, but how often do we see potential at this club go unrealised. It’s almost like they hit an imaginary brick wall when they get into the first team and can’t progress as much as they should thereafter. That is an issue that needs addressing. Look at other young players at other clubs such as Wakefield, Castleford, Leeds and Saints that seem to improve year on year.

I personally think that if we can get Reardon fit, and our new signings on the field, we could make playoffs and make an impact. Especially when you consider the players that could return from injury soon. Things are not as bad as people perceive at the moment imo.
