I’m going to say the team of 2017/2018.

Although the team of 2004 was pretty good the best RL I’ve ever seen in my limited time supporting the club was in the last two years. On occasions they played RL a entertaining a any I’ve seen in SL. As it’s a team game I just can’t see beyond them. I certainly can’t leave any out it just wouldn’t be right.

Mathers
Johnstone
Collis
Tupou
Fox
Miller
Hampshire
Fifita
Wood
Korkidas
Kirmond
Ashurst
Lauitiiti

Coach: Despite having a dreadful year I’m going with Chester over Kear just as Chester’s been in the post longer this decade.

Same with the players. Hard to leave out the likes of JD and Morrison but again Kirmond from 12-14 was unplayable at times.

Was tempted to put Tim Smith at 7 from his first spell but the way it ended the second time will always leave a sour taste.
