Nice half forward line
Schneider - Riewoldt - Hall
Hall:
. The perfect replacement for Hammill
. Somewhat better than Gwilt
. The coach knows him well
. Only went bad once Lyon left Sydney
. Another 12 games and gets to 100 with St.Kilda for father-son rule (scary thought)
. Only backmen he can't beat is Max
. If we can resurrect Gardner...
. Will play cheap just to prove himself

I reckon he would carry alot of baggage from the bad st kilda past. Why risk what we have now with relics from the past imo.

you missed one - IntraClub games would be a sellout just to see the Goose/BBBH rematch.

I don't believe Hall is a particularly malicious or bad person (like all Saints, I did however believe his punch to the guts of Goose was unacceptable), but his constant brain snaps and general short temper are too risky to have on field.
McQualter - Riewoldt - Lynch is far more preferable for next year. Lynch is a long term prospect and will be ready next year and it'd be more productive to get a year into him than a year out of Hall.

I have always been a big fan of BBBBHall's football skills (as opposed to his random acts of violence).
I actually believe that all of the current players at the club - even Goose - would wear the idea of him coming back (but I doubt they would have worn Everitt at any price). Hall is like a big, somewhat stupid, kid with ADHD: what you see is what you get (even if you don't always like it). Everitt, although I am sure he is more of a Sainter at heart than Hall, is a bit more malignant ("screwed up" is another way of putting it).
However, I can't find a place for Hall in our current forward setup. At his best, he seemed to fill a fairly similar role at the Swans to that played by Riewoldt at our club.
So I hope that the club doesn't consider the possibility........

kidding urself, why ruin our superbly structured forward line? Ross lyon has put a lot of time and effort into it and sure hall is a past superstar but his career is OVER
and look we already have kosi and roo, two towers is enough, look what happened when we had g-train, kosi and roo together...forward line just did not work
