Hull confirm Hall exit

Hull have confirmed that centre Craig Hall will leave the club at the end of the season, with city rivals Hull KR a possible destination.

Hall, 22, has been around the Airlie Birds first team since 2007, but spent a spell on loan at Championship side Widnes last season, where he helped them to win the Northern Rail Cup.

But with his existing deal up at the end of the season, coach Richard Agar has said the club will not be offering him a new deal.

He said: “Craig has been a valued member of our squad who has made a significant contribution to the group in recent seasons.

“At this time of year we have to make difficult decisions and this is one of those decisions.”

Hall has been given permission to speak to other clubs about his future, and rumours have linked him with a possible cross-city switch to Craven Park.
