I truly believe craig has masses of ability und under a new coach can realise his potential.
And I totally buy the whole confidence thing we have guys at work and no doubt the rest of you do who half of them need a good kick up the booty when they mess up and the other half need an arm around them telling them they will do better next time.
I believe this is where good man management comes in and I believe Morgan has this in ubbundance and that agar has none'" You could have just quoted me and saved yourself a lot of time.
I suppose I should be honored

| Quote: rover49 "Two seasons ago I would have paid him to leave, but he has really improved in his defence work and puts in some massive hits when defending his line. He isn't as quick as Hall, but I think his brain is quicker and he reads the game around our kick attack moves very well. You may relish Hall being our centre, but Welhams defence is now very good, which is maybe what Morgan is aiming to do with Hall, if he can get him defending like Welham does, he will be an asset to us with his pace and attacking skills.
I am still to be convinced about Hall, but he is here now and I am confident he will be receiving a far higher standard of coaching and conditioning at Rovers, so if he cannot do it here, he won't do it anywhere.'"
I agree with most of that

| I'm really pleased Hall has signed because besides wanting to see my team win, I like to be entertained by watching quality attacking players with flair and pace and Hall certainly has these qualities regardless of his perceived frailties.
Hall has stated in the HDM that he's grateful to Richard Agar and Andy Last etc. but he surely must have doubted whether Agar and co. really had the knowledge or tools get get the best of a player like him and I'm sure he'll have far more trust and confidence under better guidance of a quality coach like JM.
If he gets a chance in the left centre, that would mean he'd be playing inside Willie Mason where he could be really useful feeding of Mason breaking the line/offloads etc.

A mouth watering prospect.

I would imagine only time will tell if it was Craig or his enviroment that was his issue.'"
You've made up a situation / excuse that doesn't exist with this "stick" you keep going on about.
Craig Hall, to my memory has always been supported by Hull FC fans. In fact, I think if there has ever been any frustration it is that he is simply not living up to his potential - and hasn't season on season, unlike players like Briscoe, Houghton etc. But I've never heard him in boo-ed or anything like that, well other than the odd individual idiot. You'll get a "groan" whenever a player makes a mistake in a good attacking position (which unfortunately Hall does a lot), but that is certainly not unique to either Hall or Hull FC - and if that is effecting him, well it illustrates the point about confidence quite clearly.
As much as it pains me to say it, Morgan is a better coach than Agar. Hall has been a "nearly" player for quite a few seasons. I'm hopeful for the lad that this is a good move for him and that he goes on to be the player I think he could be.

Unless you mean 20/30 comments on here, well if that bothers him it really proves my point.'"
Spot on Paul. He was never singled out by the fans for stick it's a complete myth. I like Craig and hope he becomes a success at Rovers, I just don't see it happening, his decision making is poor and he can't shrug off the errors which just causes him to make even more. I don't think he deals with pressure well at all.

| Did seem that there was a Craig Hall thread after every other defeat that he played in.

Most players get a thread if they have had a poor game or a good game. It's what the forum is for, discussing the team and players. I don't think Craig ever got any unfair criticism and I don't recall him ever being blamed for a defeat by anyone. He also had threads praising him when he played well.

I'd say you're wrong on both counts TBH.

I can tell you now, there is no problem between Hall and the coaching staff other than the usual performance assessments, which on occasion will quite rightly have been critical. I gather he has got vocal in his upset in the past. But ask any fan, of any club if they mind their coaching staff giving players a kick up the backside once in a while - and my god, does Hall need it.

Firstly, that thread is common across all boards when a player has had a bad game. Its certainly not a victimisation like some are suggesting.
Secondly, that's got to be a worrying thread to read if your a Hull KR fan.
