If the rumour is correct and Rovers have bought Craig hall for next season and beyond, we need a new coach, because he has not got a clue what a rugby player is.Just because his old man was a good player for the robins does not make his son a good player. I have always had my doubts about him but watching him play against Wigan, well i am dumfounded as to what anyone see's in his play,he cant tackle in fact he wont tackle frightened to death when he has the ball unless there is no one in front of him. If Rovers have got him, then I will not be renewing my season pass for me and my family I am not subsidising another no hoper

Maybe Rovers should consult you on which players to bring in, in order to ensure the sale of a season pass.

So Uve had your doubts? Can I ask how many times youve seen the lad play? And I don't mean on tv.

Several years...and imo he is NL1 at best

And do you agree with the OP in saying that he WONT tackle and is frightened when he has the ball?

Slight over reaction. Not to buy a pass just because we may have signed craig as cover for wing / centre. I personally hope we haven't signed him but if we have then he'll get my backing and support and hopefully he can turn out to be a shrewd purchase.

He'll come cheap and will be used for cover I suspect. Not a bad choice in my opinion.



Look at it like this. He's a lad playing with no confidence for a team that uses him as a scape goat at any given opportunity. Richard Agar nothing about him and has failed to motivate a decent player. He can score good tries and is quick. Needs work on his defence but more over needs confidence building back into him. He'll get that at KR, he'll get that from Justin.



I'm not too fussed either way, but like said above he will get my full support.

If you'd watched Rovers in the NL you'd have seen players with only a fraction of the footballing ability Craig Hall has. He wouldn't be the first talented player not to realise his potential but lets see what a different enviornment & some quality coaching can do first.

When Latus made his mistake in the Derby, appart from his nerves at being in his biggest game ever and constantly targeted by hull, he did ok. Craig Hall on the other hand, as soon as he made his first error on Friday you could see the confidence flood out of him, the kid was gone, i can only assume the thoughts of how the fans at the KC destroyed Thorman and blamed him for hulls performances came flooding back. Plus, i hope he doesn't watch the replay of the game, Agar's reaction to Halls mistake wont help his confidence either, very unprofessional of Agar.

Expectations won't be high and nor will his wage. It'd be a gamble, but not a big one. He seems to be going backwards at the moment, but a fresh start might be what he needs. He'd only be a squad player initially. At worst he gives us a bit of depth in the 3/4s, at best he develops into the player it looked, 2 or 3 years ago, he could become. Goal kicker too and we don't have many if anything happens to Dobson.

Absolutely spot on.
