Stats history: Barry Hall (AFL Tables)

In his second season for the club Hall had a tough first half of he year and his second half showed just how good a player he is and that age has no bounds. Some had even started questioning his decision to retire urging him to play on another year, but his mind was made up due to how his body was feeling and the impact that training and playing was having.

Turning at the half way mark of he season with just 5 games and 10 goals due to an ankle injury many had started to question if Hall should hang up the boots mid-season and end his great career. He had decided to continue on and get past his ankle injury which led to a stellar vein of form which saw him end up with 55 goals for the season and in every game from round 16 onwards he would kick 4 or more goals.

Now retired Hall has achieved what he wanted to at the dogs restoring his reputation and should now be remembered as the great forward he was at 14th on the all time VFL/AFL goal kickers at 746 goals.

Notable Games:

Round 18 - vs Sydney: 5.3 and 4 inside 50's against his old club.

Round 21 - vs Essendon: 6.3 and 1 assist from 15 posessions

That's good news,though I was keen to see him fight,He is to old and his body would not cope and the bouts would only be fluff fights not good for Barrys reputation.
