WIDNES:



This is much harder than I thought - because so many good players have played in the same position and so I find myself changing my mind not picking people who would usually walk into a team. Here goes though. In the end I went for a combination of sheer pace in most backline positions and toughness in most forward positions.



1. Mick Burke

2. Stuart Wright

3. Frank Myler

4. Eric Hughes

5. Martin Offiah

6. Dennis O'Neill

7. David Hulme

8. Jim Mills

9. Keith Elwell

10. Frank Collier

11. George Nicholls

12. Doug Laughton

13. Vince Karalius



Close calls: Mick Adams, Tony Myler, Joe Lydon, Andy Gregory, Jonathan Davies, Alan Tait, Jim Measures, Tony Karalius, George Kemel, Ray Dutton, Andy Currier, Mike O'Neill, etc

NO

1. steve prescott (close between him and arthur keegan)

2. clive sullivan

3. garry schofield

4. tevita vaikona

5. tom briscoe (could be lineham eventually)

6. david topliss

7. tony dean (oh to have those 2 now to solve out half back problem)

8. mick harrison

9. lee jackson

10. trevor skerrett

11. lee crooks

12. steve norton

13. johnny whiteley (just gets in - retired in 1965)



subs

14. richard horne

15. karl harrison

16. keith tindall

17. steve macnamara



pace and tries galore in the backs - 1 to 5 scored a total of 674 tries for hull, creativity at half back and 12 and 13, and a pack that would be feared throughout the league with a great hooker. that's a good team



close call for keegan, charlie stone, paul cooke, paul eastwood, mick crane, vince farrah, paul rose, gareth raynor, gareth carvell and kirk yeaman

I think there's a slight oversight with your #4 there.

Honourable mentions to: Keith Rayne, Andy Kelly, Gary Price, Michael Jackson, Don Fox, Brian Briggs, Harold Poynton,

not really, vaikona played most of his games for hull at [url=http://www.hullfc.com/first-team/profile/218995/tevita-vaikonacentre[/url. to be fair its a position we have been pretty weak over the years (GB qualified players that is) - yeaman is an option but vaikona would be bigger box office
