This was very difficult. I worked on the principle of picking people who have entertained me the most rather than the best player in each position (which is hard to decide across eras)

1. Henry Paul
2. Andrew Fletcher
3. Steve Ella
4. Sid Domic
5. Jason Demetriou
6. Wally Lewis
7. Danny Brough
8. Adrian Shelford
9. Nigel Bell
10. Trevor Skerrett
11. Gareth Ellis
12. David Solomona
13. Ray Price

14. Mike Lampkowski
15. John Burke
16. Mark Graham
17. David Topliss

A lot of great hookers missed out so that I could get Belly in the team.
Honourable mention to would have to go to Garen Casey who probably went a long way to taking us into Super League but didn’t go to the Big Show with us so gave the other centres the nod.
I saw Neil Fox play but was too young while at Wakefield to say he entertained me, though he would fit that bill when I saw him play later for other clubs.

I wouldn’t really play the bench if it was a real game but they all deserved a place in the 13.

John Kear would coach this side.

I would be the coach, and John Kear my assistant!

We've certainly had some quality players over the years. Some fantastic half backs and back row forwards.
