Just needs a chance mate we all start from somewhere.Brough was at york and then stepped up.

Perhaps but, by the start of next season, Ben will be 29 which is fairly old for a halfback to be entering Superleague.

I'm not saying he couldn't cut it but it's just a matter of whether a SL team would take a chance on him at that age.

Brough was only 22 when he moved to SL by the way.

one major thing in our favour is that the lad appears to actually love playing for & living in Halifax (well who wouldnt!) Money aint the be all and end all.

All the talk was of Ben Black being offered mega bucks to join wait for it Leigh Centurians to help them back into Super League in 2012.Blacky i dont believe will leave Halifax for one minute and in the next couple of weeks he will re-sign along with many other first team players.

I just stating that he is quality mate and whatever age not matter if good enough.Long is 32 from saints and he doing ok.He could do 2 yrs job though.

Blacky is back from his jollys and is training tonight and focusing on the next game.He was down the Liesure centre this afternoon with Frank ,Shad and Rob it was a good afternoon for my grandchildren they learned how to do the Haka.Me , I still havn`t a clue.

He might get a chance but not on 70k a year

Ok maybe 40 grande.
