can provide all these quotes to back that claim up!!

You'll have to excuse me i'm not quite as organised as Mrs B but i think it goes something like this




I'd find some more but well I don't have an extensive bookmarking of quotes

[size=200=#0000FFOwned[/size ...... Mrs B will be proud

Post quotes i have made regarding Hall and i will respond to them taking into account the date they were made.

The lad is actually the type of player i like, he excites crowds and can get you a match winning try.
However his body language in a Hull FC shirt is not right and if the small % of posters who use the Hull FC forum on this site represent the general opinion of him he needs to get out of the KC quick sharp.
Whether its the coaching at Hull that isnt helping him will remain to be seen if he joins another club.
His contact in Defense certainly needs work and also his decision making.
However i have seen several instances where he has been slated and tries have been conceded by Hull because he was left isolated.
Therefore it could simply be a confidence issue and again a fresh start for him is the answer.
It thats at Rovers he would start the season as 4th choice Centre, perhaps even 5th if Cockayne is playing well.
Morgan will make that decision.

I will put my morgate on the fact you will not find any-more....



Yet there you was claiming I moaned all season

Not quite owned



I wrote that a couple of weeks ago...He claimed I had moaned all season

Playing the devils advocate may i suggest you only moaned about Craig Hall a couple of weeks ago....













But other, more general moans have been throughout the season.

Conversely did you save the dates and threads from hull fans who have changed their minds ( nearly said as much as their underpants, until i realised we are talking of the great unwashed



) consistently over the season dependent on which media organisation has stated he will / will not be moving to Rovers.

IMO he is one of the most deadly attacking players in super league and one of the worst defensively and like my initial reaction when Rovers announced the signing of Josh Hodgson i was completely neutral.

Must add, since watching JH play i realise why Justin Morgan is a coach and i am not....the lad has been very good and has the potential to become a top class super league player.

TBF Bert I have moaned about Hally for a few seasons

I don't need to. Apart from Kosh and fc baldy I don't think you'll find many Hall cheerleaders on the FC forum. Feel free to browse though.

I think it would be better for Craig if he went to another club rather than to us. As has been stated he would be at best 4th choice if not 5th choice centre and 3rd choice winger for us. Add to that he would be under scrutiny and pressure as he'd crossed the divide which he doesn't seem to handle to well.

I think for his career development he would be better plying his trade at somewhere like Cas / Wakey so it was a complete change of surroundings and somewhere he may get a better chance of 1st team rugby.

If you're talking about natural attacking rugby league ability, then Craig Hall is better than any centre currently playing for either Hull club, but unfortunately his defficiencies at this moment in time far outweigh the positives he brings to a team. where he needs to go to get better I don't know.

If we sign Craig Hall then I'd really question rovers ambitions. The guy is only fit for NL1 rugby.

Sadly that's the truth of it.

It is a shame. I think Craig is clearly very loyal to Hull FC but that his whole problem is that he's a confidence player and that has taken some big knocks. I'm not sure he's a NL1 standard player as if his defence could be improved there's little doubt that he'd be an asset in SL, as his attacking prowess is exceptional.
If he comes to Rovers I'd welcome him and hope his confidence grows.

I'd take a punt. He is having a shocker at FC and his face on friday when he knocked on said it all. A couple of mistakes and again he is dropped from this weeks squad. The guy cant do any good in Agars eyes and is playing on eggshells. If the same were applied at Rovers Welham and Latus and Watts would have been dumped long ago. Sometimes a quiet word saying dont worry about the odd mistake, it wont cost you goes a long way.
He must feel that the next game he plays must be flawless with a hatrick or he's no good.

He's played over 70 first team games for FC. Fringe players have to step up when they get their chance and they are rewarded with first team selection, see Whiting and Houghton.

So if Whiting drops a bomb or Houghton knocks on at the play the ball they get dropped? I've seen Tansey dance all around the ball when it drops but he never looks like taking a fall.

Hall was in the top 10 error makers in SL in 2008, yet was played in 21 matches. Hardly in and out of the team.

Its all about how that player responds to his knock on....

Talking to some Widnes fans last night, they would welcome him back with open arms, seems he had a good spell there.

I personally think he would thrive at Rovers, having Justin as his coach he would come on leaps and bounds, just my opinion of course.

Whilst remaining completely neutral on the possibility of Hall being a Rovers player next season and the possibility about Mason wearing the famous shirt in 2011....i find it incredulous that anyone with even a limited knowledge on R.L. would big up the former as a future international and downplay the huge impact that a multi capped Oz international ans SOO player would have at Rovers, or indeed any S.L. club.

All about opinions though, i suppose.

Really? You stated it was a waste of time and money bringing Fitzgibbon and O'Meley, as multi-capped Oz internationals and SOO players, to FC. Therefore by your logic, you don't "even have a limited knowledge of RL".
