Personally i would have prefered Black to Handforth along with Thackery, He has had a bad year but with no pack to play behind and he has been carrying injuries with his toe and knee most of the year i fear this will definatly come back to haunt us.

Hasn't been the same since they fixed his toes. Thanks for the memories Blacky, saved us from relegation in your first season and returned to save us again.

Thanks for the memories in blue & White Ben, all the best at Batley

I did wonder how long it would take for a Smoggie to turn up

Thackery and Black are too similar to play together. Handforth will lead the team around the field.

Thank you for everything Ben! Hope it works out.

Good luck, they'll always be a place in the Fax for you Ben.

Legend Benny Boy! All the best son

It does make me wonder what Kear sees in Ben that Harrison doesn't. Really sorry to see Blacky go, and I'm not looking forward to playing any team with him in it!

All the very best Ben you were a big part of some of the most exciting attacking rugby seen at Fax for a long time.

LEGEND.

Has looked to be carrying a few extra pounds for me this season and last season.

Not been himself since the trouble with his feet, 2008/9 was the best we have seen of him his and dana's performance vs Cas will stick in my memory for a long long time.
