Last year, we at Trinity Heritage, did a Wildcats' 'Team of Super League' with a good response … now we want a fans vote of the 'Best Team of the 1990s'

Votes / best team / your favourites can be published on here and we are also using our Facebook and Twitter sites … all a bit of fun to be published in the 'Trinity Heritage newsletter'

So please … tell me your 'Best Team of the 1990s' … Examples…

Full BacksWingers Phil Fox, Andy Wilson, David Jones, Gary Christie, Jonny Wray, Lynton Stott, Neil Law
CentresStand Off Tracey Lazenby, Nigel Wright, Lee Hanlan, Brad Davis, Garen Casey, Tony Kemp
Scrum HalfProps Keith Rayne, John Glancy, John Thompson, Adrian Shelford, Mark Webster, Ian Marlow, Francis Stephenson, Nigel Bell, Gary Lord, Frank Watene
HookerSecond RowLoose Forward: Nigel Bell, Richard Slater, Matt Fuller, Mike Forshaw, Willie Poching

We are going to pick four substitutes too and the 'next best' voting

From an overseas point of view … Ray Price played 15 games in 1990 and Henry Paul played 19 games in 1993-94

Thanks for helping…. off you go ...

May not be the best team available, but picked based on my favourites whilst growing up.
Tough call between Perry & Spencer at full back as tliked them both.
Also close call between Bagnall & Conway at scrum half. Opted for MC as i needed a goal kicker and it seemed he almost carried us single handedly at times in the early 90's.

Id like to sneak Ray Price in there also, but not sure the exact year he played?? Was it 89??

It was tough between Conway and Bagnall, but chose Bagnall, as I felt he was the more complete player. Kicking duties would have been with Nigel Wright. His all rounk kicking I thought was better than Mark Conway.

1. Martin Holland
2. Neil Law (because he could score tries and Jones couldn't)
3. Adam Hughes
4. Andy Mason
5. Andy Wilson

6. Nigel Wright
7. Geoff Bagnall
8. Adrian Shelford
9. Nigel Bell
10. Mark Webster
11. Mike Forshaw
12. Michael Jackson

13. Willie Poching

BOLD = ONES I'M CERTAIN ABOUT.

TBH nearly all of the above I could happily substitute, also many played well in more than one position. I thinks this shows how patchy a club like Wakefield was and is. I hate missing out Price because he was one of the few genuine top flight players we produced but S/R was one of our few successes - ditto Conway but Belly had to go somewhere and as a jack of all trades that wasn't easy.

Found it really hard to separate the half backs. I went with Conway for the goal kicking but Bagnall was a favourite of mine. Lazenby and Casey again were two of my favourites but when fit Wright was one of the best in the whole league.

1 spencer
2 Wilson
3 mason
4 leuluai
5 Jones
6 cases
7 bagnall
8 Thompson
9 March
10 bell
11fritz
12whakarau
13 slater

All picked are my personal favourite choices
As iread down the list all the names brought a smile to my face for various reasons... With one of the best memories being, watching bagnall dismantle leeds at headingly the day we nilled them. With leeds fans throwing tickets from the stands and the leeds coach ( can't remember name)puffing away on 100s of fags from the dug out. as the hooter sounded I remember looking round at all the wakey fans and thinking how proud I was to follow my team!..
It is because of games like this that we still get on the 10 yard line to follow them when we are in the million pound games and fighting for super league survival.
