Sorry Bill, I must have confused your comments with others.

Hall did get caught out running forward a couple of times which conceded Waites a couple of shots with nobody marking him...apart from the questionable Fevola free (where Fisher would have kicked a goal anyway after losing Deledio), the disappointing one for me was when both the Bowden's were on the point line and spoiled the ball back into play straight in Waites' waiting arms and he kicked a goal.

While you're perusing stats, you might acknowledge the fact that Hall picked up a lazy five contested possessions (higher than anyone else on the ground) meant that he more than made up for getting caught out down back at times with some good contested rebounding work which set up and/or saved goals for us.

I have to agree that his last 3 games have been the best footy I have ever seen him play!
Great desperation and pressure.

Hope to see more the last 2 games.

He's played plenty of games that well TE, and quite a few better.

He's better suited at CHB than FB if he has to play in defence, and last week was probably the fittest he's been so far this year...he's had a pretty rotten year for injuries and played injured numerous times.

Let's not go overboard here. I concede Hall had a serviceable game on Sunday, in fact played pretty well, but surely thats because the midfield were so good on the weekend reducing the pressure on the backline ;)

Overall a great team effort
