I (and others) have mentioned before Hall having the potential to adapt to the centre position. You only have to look at Meli this season to see how it could pan out. Perhaps not many St Helens supporters were calling for that switch either.
I'd be more interested to see a centre/wing partnership of Hall/Watkins than Watkins/Hall.

Hall looks a perfect centre to me. He's not got electric pace for a winger, but at centre would be a bigger threat. You could then put one of your exciting wingers there.
Agree on Meli, it's transformed his performances for us this season.

There's more to centre than being big. For me keep him at wing whilst he's performing well there. Its wing or second row for me. If they thought of him as having the potential for a centre one of the last 3 coaches would have tried him there a bit more often

Bit small for a centre.

George Rileys blog: Leeds must find another thoroughbred in their stable. Existing options are Kallum Watkins, Ben Jones-Bishop and Lee Smith but I know none of them want to play in that position
Watkins wants right centre then? Should we sign another centre and BJB stays fit where does that leave Smith?

I see us lining up like this in the backs next year:
Webb, Hardaker, BJB, Watkins, Hall.
This leaves Smith as first reserve for 1-5 and then into the kids. If we sign anyone else then we will seriously hamper the development of those above and they need gametime in preferred positions now.
poop or get off the pot I think the phrase is....
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.
