hall

[zinga]

so do we all blame hall for this loss seems to me he has been better than the wingers we had 2nite at least he eats up the meters maybe all the hall haters will quieten down a bit

[RoosterBoi]

A bit poor form calling out the wingers tonight. The debutante tried his hardest, he was thrown into the lion den. Iku was one of our better players tonight always trying his hardest. Nothing against hall, but you can't blame the wingers for tonight.

'Wingers' ???
Ikavalu made one mistake but was our best player by a space

Yes the young fella was nervous under the high ball but gee he was keen to do the hard carries. He has a FG future ahead of him i would think

[FREEMAN89]

Did you even watch the Game?

Ikavalu was close to our best on ground and after a shake start, young Christian did an awesome job on debut against Vunivalu.. (no easy opponent for a debutant)

Do I think hall is better than either of those 2... no

Would hall have made more running metres... Yeah

would he has conceded a try under the high ball against Vunivalu... yeah

would he have changed the outcome... no

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Iku was close to if not our best tonight.
Hall won't have made a difference tonight... probably wouldn't have finished off our try either.

[QWERTY]

Well only reason Christian played was cause Hall was injured, but even though he looked shaky under the high ball he gave it his all. Definitely has a future, but I think he’s still a bit undercooked

[milanja]

The young fella already has more tries than hall in just one game.

Yeah it just wasn't our night. No point in blaming individuals. 11 players injured against a top 4 team (with 2 out) and still only lost 24/6. Pretty close given how shyte we were TBH... plenty of teams have had their pants pulled down by far more than that with full-strength squads this season. Let's just STFU and have a proud loss for once rather than having a whinge and demanding we sack everybody.

Just not our night! We were pathetic and last week was the first game in four when we haven’t looked poor. We have realistically been shit for 7 weeks. Yes lots of injuries so I don’t give up on them but let’s not gloss over the massive cracks. Everyone of our played was at best poor tonight.

[Easts75]

Robbo just said Hall isnt injured, just decided to go with the young fella

[Lydon]

Very happy with Christian tonight

What impressed me the most was his willingness to cart the ball out of our own 20 time and again, despite constant pressure from Hughes kicking game..

Also Ikavalu had an immense game tonight, good on him.

[Mad_Rabid_Rooster]

Christian and Iku can hold their heads up tonight. They did pretty darn well under the circumstances. Hall, while I am not one of the haters, would not have suddenly changed the outcome, so it is a moot point IMO.

[4 the all in brawl]

Both our wingers played well tonight....

Iku was close to our best and young Christian did very well considering first game was targeted and has a hell or a lot more upside to his game than Hall........

I am not a Hall hater but I reckon Suli would have given Hall a bath tonight if he had played.....

I hazzard a guess and say that we may have lost by more than 18 if bumbling Ryan Hall played on the left wing. For starters we wouldnt have scored the try and probably would have conceded 1 or 2 like he did last week against a lot weaker opposition.....

[Bondicigar]

If anything Hall has slipped further down the pecking order.
