| Hall is a fantastic winger and has been good for years. It a very personal opinion to say best winger in the world etc, but I would imagine he would get into most teams in the world and get a game. Good to see him play well, but was most impressed with the team as a whole playing as a team

I'd be interested to know which three you'd put above him on current form.
Hall has got it all. Pace, balance, power and lethal finishing. He is as safe as any under a high ball and
his work coming out of defence is tireless and as effective as most top forwards. He shows amazing agility for a man of his size(he actually weighs more than Graham or Peacock despite being lighter this year than last)
He is as near to the finished article as you'll ever see in a 23 year old. If Hardaker, Watkins and BJB develop in a similar fashion Leeds will have an awesome back-line for many years to come.

Given the name of the poster I guess he'd be behind Pat Richards & Charnley.

If you're talking on current form, then he perhaps is in the Top 3 in the World, purely for his performances in the 4N. But I think Richards is still a better all-round player than Hall, those two lead the way in SL. Then from the NRL there's Uate, Ferguson, Vatuvei, Nightingale and Yow Yeh who are all contenders.

| Amazing skill shown by Hall in the last two games ,although shouldn't be surprised as he has done that sort of thing against Saints over the years.
Hopefully he can do it again next week

| There are some that state a left winger doesn't necessarily become an [iequally[/i good right winger...and vice versa. Hall refutes that.
I must say though I don't remember quite such exquisite finishing in such tight conditions from the left wing.
Hall to right wing for Leeds (I still remember his brilliant try from the RW position in the GF when Smith played FB); with BJB moving to the left wing anybody ??

Hall was used to be good on the right with Donald better on the left. Hall looks comfortable holding the ball in his right hand and fending off with his left. For such a big guy he has superb balance and what I like about him and all the great wingers is to keep going for the line without slowing even when the cover tackles are coming in.

| How much does Ryan Hall weigh? Sure I've read 95 kg somewhere, which is much less than Graham/Peacock.
As for wingers switching right and left, I honestly can't think of many who were equally effective on both sides of the field.

| he is potentially the best finisher we've seen since Robinson and Offiah and that is some great company to mentioned with. Granted i dont watch Leeds week in week out but would you say he has the ability to change a game from your own half through individual brilliance ala Carney against you guys a few years back, Offiah at wembley, or is he more of an outstanding finisher 10-20 yards out due to his power and explosive speed ??

My bad! This is the sort of trouble you can get into when you start to believe the crap you hear/read in the media.
He is actually between 12-13 kilos lighter than them according to that incredibly reliable encyclopaedic website.

| hall knows his strenghts and uses them to the teams advantage, most wingers/full backs are smaller and struggle to stop him in full flight so they either need excellent technique or help from the cover defence
i wouldnt put him in the lightning quick mould of donald or put him above richards at trying to catch an attacking kick but he's probably a all round better player than both
what does bode well for both leeds and england is that he's a intelligent player that knows he needs to keep improving and not some big headed look ive made it guy

I never had any problems, I was about as good on the left as I was on the right.

Or the fact that Blake Ferguson (although very exciting to watch) is a complete liability. Terrible defensive decision making and is guaranteed at least one major brain fart per game. Good exciting player, but not a patch on Hall at the moment. And as for Pat Richards - give it a rest.
Brett Morris (who was not mentioned), Nightingale and Uate I can see why people may put Hall behind these, although I'd actually say he's pretty much on a par with them. Big Manu can be awesome on his day, but equally he is very one dimensional and can be made ineffective (a la fat les).

| I'm delighted that we have him at Leeds.
But clearly he'd be even better in the centre or the second row.
