I have no idea why people are against it. He'd be a very handy pick up. Still has age on his side and wouldn't cost an arm and a leg. He'd be great as a half forward and spending time in the midfield. Massive upgrade on hrovat and turner.
I suppose the injury history is the one concern and fair enough too, but our small forward stocks aren’t exactly glistening atm.

I never said he was soft, it’s just he doesn’t get his hands out of his pockets to tackle much. If I was going to call a player soft, I’ll just come out and say it.

Besides injury history, I don’t see why not. Waite and Higgins had their issues pre-north.

He play’s like a small forward, but you would know more than on him.
Dahlhaus isn't much of a forward. Only kicked 58 goals over his last five seasons. Wouldn't even call him a goal kicking midfielder anymore.

I honestly thought his numbers were better than that now looking at footywire, even when he played more as a forward, he wasn't exactly dominate in the goal-kicking department.

Depends on the cost for me. I'm not against it....just not very keen.

From very early on he pushed up the ground. Dogs always wanted dickson or stringer one out. I know because I've been a big fan of dahl since early days.

I'm not sure where anyone is getting this small forward rubbish from.

Well he's small and he tackles which is all it takes to get the gig at the moment. I'd be keen if he was prepared to apply himself but I'd rather see him do that at the Dogs than take the risk.

Bloody wife wants to travel later this year, but I cannot be bothered packing Huge Luggage.
Didn't he just sign an extension?

I know the family and before the draft they wanted him to stay in Vic but I think he has settled well up North. His old man played with Jono Brown, so they have a connection to Brissie.

I can’t tell whether this is a good thing or not
Isn't Hall exactly what we need, outside speed and class, line breaker, high possession winner. Must admit I don't watch many Suns games. Perhaps I have him confused with someone else?
