7. Murphy
8. Ward
9. McCurrie
10. T. Skerrett
11. Lowe
12. Ashurst
13. Reilly

Who?

meant to change fullback to radders, but forgot

Trevor Skerrett

OK, from the players I have seen in the flesh, I will go with

1. Jonathan Davies
2. Jason Robinson

15. Jamie Peacock
16. Paul Sculthorpe
17. James Graham
18. James Roby

The starting 13 are the best I have seen play in their position when on top form... I have to admit, I've picked the subs to make a team - e.g. I think that Lowes was probably a better hooker than Roby but if you start with Cunningham (in front of Lowes) then Roby is a better option off the bench

3. Gary Connolly
4. Garry Schofield
5. John Atkinson

Can't believe I've got 5 ex-salford players in there, although I know most people would associate them with Wigan

Thanks for that. Beat me to it.

This has been good for a laugh, this thread...

With 30 seconds consideration, it would look a bit more like:-

1. Jim Sullivan
2. Billy Boston
3. Neil Fox
4. Harold Wagstaff
5. Mick Sullivan
6. Roger Millward
7. Alex Murphy
13. Malcolm Reilly
12. Dick Huddart
11. Vince Karalius
10. Ken Gee
9. Joe Egan
8. Brian McTigue

The side didn't start playing last week...

How can Gary Connolly be included? He was defensively solid, but just didn't have the all-round game. I know it's only opinion, but Garry Schofield and Joe Lydon walk in straight ahead of him, without anybody else.

From player's that i have seen play, mine would be:

1. George Fairbairn

2. Jason Robinson
3. Garry Schofield
4. Jonathon Davies
5. Martin Offiah

6. Shaun Edwards
7. Andy Gregory

8. Andy Platt
9. Keiron Cunningham
10. Lee Crooks

11. Phil Clarke
12. Andy Farrell

13. Ellery Hanley

Subs:

14. Denis Betts
15. Gareth Ellis
16. Mike Gregory
17. Andy Goodway

1 Joe Lydon
2 Jason Robinson
3 Jonathon Davies
4 Paul Newlove
5 Martin Offiah
6 David Hulme
7 Andy Gregory
8 Kevin Ward
9 Paul Hulme
10 Stuart Fielden
11 Karl Fairbank
12 Adrian Morley
13 Ellery Hanley

14 Tony Myler
15 Des Drummond
16 Andy Platt
