| Quote: ☺East-Sard☺ "The one big advantage Hall offers, is his versatility. Should an injury occur, he can do a job 1-7 etc.
Still, big call ‘resting/dropping’ a form player be it Salter or Brown to cater for Hall. Hall's fitness is also a concern. Will he be 100% fit? Hall seems prone to picking up the odd calf strain here, ankle problem there - never anything major, just minor strains that result him being out for a few weeks.
If we're desperate to draft Hall into the side somewhere, I'd go down the Salter route. But even then, I'm inclined to keep the same 1-7 that has served us well in the past two games.'"
Salter in my eyes is a betterer tackler love that word betterer is there such a word oh well there is now

| Quote: Paul T - HKR "The question you pose is the question I feel sure CS will be asking, and based solely on who would make Rovers stronger I think Hall is a bigger threat than Salter?
However, after a mid-morning coffee (with dunked Bourbons), my colleagues and I are of the opinion that Salter is in the team on merit and deserves to retain his place, but the team will be improved with the inclusion of Hally. This is why we feel Hally will replace Alex Brown.
Now, we know it is a dangerous game attempting to second guess coach CS, but he is ever conscious about player development. So, with this in mind, Alex is one of CS's projects (a work-in-progress) and whilst he has played exceptionally well CS won't want to burn him out. Instead, he might decide to use this opportunity to 'rest' (not drop) Alex so he can can take stock of his recent performances and work on aspects of his game that needs improving.'"
No chance! Sandercock wont change a winning team. And does anyone realise that since Hall has been out, we`ve won both times!

| The old Adage....if it ain't broke, dont fix it.
At the moment the team is playing reasonably well and as with any winning team ( i know its only two in succession) but, you want as little dissruption or change as possible imo, Salter has earned his place on merrit as has Brown who looked immpresive on Saturday.
You also have to consider the likelyhood that these two players will get even better with game time and dropping them now would be the wrong thing to do imo.
People have been calling for Sandercock to give the young guns a good run out for some time, now that he has done and they have done ok, they want him to drop them after a couple of games or so, what message would that send out to the other youngsters who aspire to push for first team recognition in the future?.
Injuries or fatigue will determine team selection to a point during the season anyway but for the time i would leave the current selection well alone.

| Never be afraid to change a winning team if you think you can make it stronger. Speaking personally, the only change i would make is Hodgson in for Jordan Cox but i'm sure that Craig Sandercock will give a lot of thought to Craig Hall and Lincoln Withers if they are available. Got to be a good thing surely.

| Go on then I’ll say it… Craig Hall isn’t all that, he’s a good back up player, ideal for the inevitable injury crisis, can play 1 – 7 or 13 so ideal for any squad
I thought he looked awful against Salford and just don’t see how he’ll add to our team currently. He’s lost on the wing and the defensively Salter has looked good so why move him out for a player who is arguably weaker in defence at centre. We aren’t lacking in attack so to add another pivot may do more harm than good, keep Hall in reserve for when we pick up a knock or get to a point when we really need to rest someone. A full strength HKR team doesn’t have CH in the 17.

That would all be well and good if we had 12 interchanges and could get long minutes from the likes of Paea and Con Mika etc. With Hall on the bench and the rotation of Josh and Keal, that will leave two slots to rotate the likes of Lovegrove/Mika/Paea/Tuimavave/Walker and to a lesser degree Horne and Griffin when/if required. I guess technically Carlile could play the full/near 80 mins freeing up Hodgeson to play second row, but it's too much hassle for the luxury of having Hall in 17.

| Drop Horne. Only a backup player and doesn't do that much. As a backup player, Hall offers more.

Dropping Horne is one thing, but still leaves the question as to where would you play Hall - loose?

| Horne has done a fine job in spelling Mika in the back row the last 2 games. Clearly Conn can't do 80 mins (which is dissapointing for a 23 year old), but Hall can't do this job and at present GH is a better option than Cox.
As much as I like Hall, he isn't that good that he can just walk back into the team, he will have to bide his time and wait for Burn's inevitable suspension.
