AT THE TIME (for the hard of reading) we had too emerging young wingers Smith and Hall – Hall was costing us with his constant failings and lacked the skills that Smith was showing.
Smith IMO had more potential to be first choice winger – drop Hall and go with Smith – simple or do you not understand that bit either?
I still think that Hall isn’t the best winger in the SL – far from it and the only reason that the blinkered masses believe that he is the bee all and end all is because Senior is playing some of the best football of his career.
Would I trade Hall for Smith right now? You bet your life.
I stand by the comments I made last year and stick an inexperienced centre on his inside and maybe, just maybe, you may also question his ability as a top class winger.[/quote]
I would agree fully. Smith has the class. While Hall has the promise but many of his tries are because most of our best attacking moves are produced on the left and having Senior for your centre helps just a bit.
I still feel that Hall hasn't got a safe pair of hands and is prone to the odd fumble that leads to opposition scores. However give the lad his due he is improving and has become a good finisher.
