Played one or two games for us there and did OK if I remember correctly.

He had a good first half at Leeds partnering Dykes a couple of seasons ago, We were well in front as well . Then the wheels fell off in the second half with Donald scoring one of the tries of the season.

Hall and Welham in the centres? The opposition will just go straight through them.

spoke to craig hall yesterday at beverley races and he said he was staying at hull and is going to be offered a two year deal very soon..........

You sure he didn't say he was staying [iin[/i Hull?

Thats top of the list of criteria for the Rovers scouts. Also saves petrol money having to travel to watch their targets.

If 46 tries in 68 Games for FC especially after how you have been for years is a bad thing then i will take that stat all day long.

Look at the hkr fans get happy with a rumour!

is that 46 tries he's let in and been at fault for!?

The bottom line is that a couple of years ago he was the best thing since sliced bread, he was (still is) young and English, a fantastic try scorer, one of the fastest in super league and now since Messiah Agar decides he is not good enough then apparently he is NL1. I remember him being dropped and being out on loan, coming back to score 7 tries in 6 games and it only (in your lots eyes) substantiated how inept Agar actually is unfortunately i cannot be bothered to sit here and look at the last 3 years posts.
I also remember people laughing when some of our fans stated he was signing a couple of years ago as he was far too good and ambitious for us!!!
Now that he is SIGNING hes S.H.I.T and your glad he will be off the payroll and not only that he is now only a good NL1 player who is out of his depth in SL.
I get the blinkers i really do (I often have them) but sometimes people should really think about whatthey have said/typed previously before they post again!!!

I agree with most of this, however the fact remains that Craig has not progressed in the past 3 seasons, and if anything his faults appear to have been exasperated, clearly highlighted by his compulsion to jump out of the defensive line at almost every opportunity. Most of the people a few years ago would have thought that some improvement would have occurred, but sadly it hasn't; and I'm afraid his attacking flair is not good enough to cancel out his defensive flaws.

you dont have to go back 3 years just check recent threads on him and you will see what hull fc fans have to say about him

You're way wide of the mark on this one, mate. Hall's been getting flak from FC fans since the beginning of last season at least - I should know, it was usually me jumping in to defend him. Take a look at threads from as recent as last week and you'll see a majority not bothered whether he stayed or not.

Personally, I'd be sad to see him leave. He hasn't lived up to his potential during his time here for whatever reason, but he's an exciting player and I think has the potential to be very good if he can finally address the weaknesses in his game that have dogged him since his debut.

But wether you like this statement or not do you not agree that a coach like Morgan could just do that. I know that its a 50/50 split but half your fans think that Agar is not up to the job with experienced internationals never mind a young English kid.
Morgan has proved time and time again that he can bring players on more so in my opinion with the younger players than the vetrans.

Has he? You'll have to give examples.

Hall has failed to progress under two FC coaches, one of whom had an excellent reputation for bringing on young players in the NRL. And other youngsters have developed under the same two coaches. IMO coaching [imay[/i be part of the issue but it's more likely that he just hasn't handled the situation he found himself in at FC all that well. He's very much a confidence player and a bad game will ruin him for weeks.

A fresh start at a new club might be what he needs to kick on, but it won't be down to the coaching in particular.
