Best Halifax NL team : Tue Jul 21, 2009 11:12 am  

Stolen from the Widnes board, who would be your best 13 players that we've had since being relegated? Interestingly most on the widnes board have put Beswick in despite them all saying he was useless when we signed him!

I know, when I'd done it I looked at it and thought it's shocking but I couldn't think of anyone decent outside the current team!

1 - Miles
2 - Haley
3 - Royston
4 - Goddard
5 - R Sheriffe (04-05)
6 - Holroyd
7 - Black
8 - Wrench
9 - Fisher/Gleeson
10 - Said
11 - Larder
12 - Smith
13 - Weisner

14 - Penky
15 - Roberts
16 - Frank
17 - McDonald

Impossible to separate Fisher and Gleeson. Fisher stood out in a much worse team and could play 80 mins.
The same reason for Weisner over Beswick, stood out in a much worse team and was also such a good leader in 2005.
Rikki was defensively frail at times but with Goddard inside him, this would have helped but also he would have had a shedload of tries.

Its hard to choose any players outside of what we have right now. The current team is far better than anything we have had since relegation. But a few players have stood out in the past. However right now I'm struggling to think of any. Perhaps our worst NL 13 would be easier

I know thats why I struggled, shows how far we've come though. Perhaps it should be with players that we've played in NL but dont play for us this season?...
