I hope this is pure rumour. I would rather go with the little we have as Hall would be no better in any of the positions he will be able to fill.

Hally? No thanks, we appreciate your service but let's move on. Besides, didn't he feature yesterday in Smiths 1st game at Wakey?

Full Back? Guzdek would be better.
Wing? We are more than covered.
Centre? As BR points out, give Hallett another go.
Back up half? Blair, Marsh, Robinson.

Hiring utility players like Hall is a sure fire way to halting the progression of home grown youth.

Agree with sir Stan if he is to come into replace goulding then that would be a huge step backwards bigger than when we signed mika to replace Clint, anyway hall is rubbish far to many poor games to good games i would rather Hallett get more game time then have hall back

I have followed Hall's progress since his days at FC & as folks on here say he as shown some magic touches, I am at a loss to understand why he did not kick on & become a top player? Maybe his previous coaches used him all over the park as he could play different positions at a pinch but he never laid claim or was never allowed to claim a regular slot in any one. I would not want him back as he will not solve any of the things we need, at centre he is to light, at 6 he is not a leader & at fullback no better than the two we already have. We might as well give the youngsters a go. We need a couple of big nasty forwards to hold the centre of the park around the ruck area ( to use a football term "someone to put their foot on the ball") then the rest of our game is good enough to do the job.

I'd rather see Netherton play centre.

Well said but what a pity craig hall was not a patch on is dad if he was half has good he would have been ok but that was never going to happen shame

What is the point of bringing back a utility back at this point in the season, especially one as average as Hall? Couldn't tackle his own Willy.

It's forwards with fire in their bellies we need, similar to the ones who played with half decent speed and passion and intensity in the second half against Cas and managed to force errors and restrict field position. Not the same soft and half hearted idiots who strolled around in second gear for the first 30 minutes, allowing the same opposition to make over 10 metres a carry, whilst making less than 5 each in return. 24 points to 6 later and the rest is history. Hope it is a lesson learned.

CRAIG HALL - DEFINITELY A NO FROM ME.

If Rovers are even thinking about it they want a good sxxxxxxg NO WAY should he be brought back Not good enough never was and never will be more heart in a lettuce

I can't be bothered to trawl back to old posts, but I'm sure most Rovers fans were disappointed when Hall left, also didn't Chester want to keep Hall, but the deal for him to sign for Wakey already done when he was appointed?

Awful comments about Hall on here.

I don't want him back but to question the lads heart is beyond the pale.

I didn't want him to leave, but the way it's gone for him at Wakey makes it the correct decision.

My views are well documented on here, but there's a serious lack of respect for a player that did his best, even if his best was less than his talent should have allowed.

Craig Hall walked the length of the East Stand and thanked the fans every time he pulled on a Rovers shirt.

Agree with Sandro some of the comments are out of order given the choice at the end of last season I would have kept hall but now I wouldn't want him back purely because I think we have better options in the positions he covers he made mistakes but always gave 100% and he does have talent

I would never question Craigs commitment at Rovers, but I never rated him as a player, showed signs of brilliance but they were counter balanced by far too many mistakes to the detriment of the squad.

I agree there was a talented player hidden away in there but it always looked to me that he lacked that % that it takes to make the jump up from being a decent player to being a good Sl quality player. That was probably a mental toughness that he seemed to lack. Once his confidence took a knock it was a long way back and at wakey I think he;s had nowhere to hide and his condfence (along with a number of others in that team) has been damaged massively.

In short I think we held onto him for too long in the first place and it has to be a no for him returning.
