I haven’t got round to watching it yet so thank you for that update.
How cruel that both Murphy and Hall who would likely have been a shoe in for knights both picked up injuries at the end of season/last game.
The good thing is that with what seems a higher focus on internationals moving forward that if players continue to play well there will be more opportunities.
For them it was unfortunate, for us it's probably a good thing. This is especially so with Hall who hade he had a good Knights game would have been of even more interest to others.
That said I think Hall is a smart cookie and sees that a decent two year deal with us and time with his main RL mentor can only improve him.
He also did himself a great favour by playing well in a few games in the SR. To be honest I thought it was a stupid idea and not necessary at the time and still do. But right or wrong I can't deny that he handled it extremely well for such a slight lad so he's pretty tough and adaptable. You have a young player who you know can play centre well but is capable of moving into the pack later in his career should he wish to, that is quite a bargaining tool.
