For Gods sake. Craig Hall, if your reading this: leave for the sake of your career. dont let this club ruin you and your potential.
Also,I'd be shocked if Thorman isn't at fullback. Its awful too. Here you have Thorman and R.Horne playing crap at halfback so really, it doesnt matter who plays there. both have played at fullback in the past. R.Horne actually showed he was good there, Thorman showed he was useless there. Yet we all know Thorman will start there. Never would I put R.Horne at fullback when the squad is fully fit, not even when there are a few injuries. but in this situation he has to play there.
Of course, we could have just played Hall there. He isnt exactly been fantastic but getting smashed every set due to a crap move we always put on, constantly been dropped and brought back in, and a coach who obviously doesnt rate him is obviously going to effect his performance

Whats all this bollox about it being a travesty Hall has been dropped? He has made far too many errors which is far outweighing the positives of his offensive play. He needs dropping and some time to build his confidence back up away from the first team, he must make more errors than any other back in SL. I'm not Agar's biggest fan by any stretch but I really dont get why Hall has suddenly got some sort of God like status where all his errors get ignored? Motu made far less errors during his slightly dodgy spell last season and got loads more stick.

Fair enough

nail on head old chap

Horne's a full-back, always has been

Couldnt agree more !

yes hall has been shocking at fullback

but he is a far better player then broughton on the wing imo

hall you deserve better go while you can

Be careful not to drop your train ticket though.

I get what your saying and i agree to a extent however the standard of the Reserve Grade level is so bad Hall wont get anything out of it.

The thing which annoys me reagarding Hall is that there must be something personal between Agar and Hall as any chance of having a sly dig regarding Hall, Agar seems to take it IMO.

Cant believe Hall isnt at least in the 19. Fair enough he has been very error-prone recently, but thats partly because he's been played out of position. Does it make sense to drop him from the fullback position? Yes. Does it make sense to drop him from the squad completely? Absolutely not. His confidence has taken a knock, however the only way to re-build that confidence is to show abit of faith and continue to play him. Dropping him the the entire squad certainly ISNT going to do him and favours whatsoever. What I fail to see here is, why Broughton (who has been drafted in for a month or so to cover injuries) is more worthy of a place than Hall? Who we all know can be devastating out wide with abit of space, and is more than capable of bagging a few trys. Imo the decision to bring Broughton in, was a good one. However he shouldnt play at the expense of anyone else, because plain and simply - he's not as good.
