Early days yet but he looked good last night, (reminded me of Ellis when he starred at fullback for the north hull eagles! )
Been really pleased with all the young kids this year who have been given a chance, thought Tommy went well apart from mistake at the end, and think he might get another run next week.

I know I'm an old git and have been coming for a long time but must say............................. Hall looked asured and here's praise he looked like a young Gary Kemble.............watch this space:

Fast
elusive
and effective!

reminded you of ellis, lol. Was he drinking cider out of his water bottle during the game.

I thought he had a cracking game. Looked assured under the high ball and positioning was good considering his lack of experience at FB. Has all the attributes to make a top FB for me

Could be our new fb if news is true what I was told about Byrne and Tony last night. Certainly had a good game last night. Looked really good attacking although wasn't tested enough defensively.

I thought Hall looked comfortable in the Full back role. Pleasing aspect for me was his communication to the defensive line, shouting and pointing to balance the defence against the attacking threat. A large part of the full back role which many seem to ignore.
Could be his position, we'll see.

that was the only thing he did wrong but other then that he was on top form

i also think tommy lee looks better at second row then hooker or in the halfs

or 13

I thought he did ok, the wingers need to back him up when he's caught a bomb over the line though, as he's much lighter than Tony and will get dragged over for the dropout a lot.

I was less than confident in Hall playing fullback pre-game.

I was wrong.

Ditto. He looked very handy bringing the ball back and didn't disappoint in defence either.

I also thought Tommy Lee did a lot better for being more direct and not trying some of the stupid kicks and dodgy passes that have become his trademark.
