Quote ="nantwichexile"As a Leeds fan I've not seen him as much as you guys...but for the reasons you mention Hall looked pretty good to me as your last line of defence. Catching McGuire flat out is no mean feat even with the advantageous angle. You're right about Eastwood too. The lad has some pace and can tackle too. Is FB his best position ? Perhaps you should have played him there with Tansey at Stand Off this season ?'"
At the start of 2009 Hally played there for about 4 games (weeks 3-6 or so) and looked great......until one dopey error v Castleford where he dropped a regulation high ball and Cas scored from it. From that moment his confidence dropped alarmingly, resulting in a spell at Widnes which did him the world of good.
Real, real shame as he has pace and a decent kick as witnessed from deep kick offs and decent penalties. I'm assuming he'll be the Rovers no.2 kicker behind Dobson next season.
His form at full back for two games was reminiscent of the solid display in weeks 3-5 of last season and shows that he can certainly cover the role if need be.
