Thanks for the Memories Ben, Good luck for the future.

Good Luck to Ben and his family - thanks for the memories.

The inside blind pass for pato to score against Swinton was for me the season highlight !!! Hope he discovers that form for Batley - but not against the Blue and White !!!!

Fax Legend! He has been awesome to watch at times and was sad to see for whatever reason he has been not at his best this season. I genuinley hope he gets back to his best at Batley(not against us obviously) because he is a quality player with the best handoff at this level for mine. He has seen the highs and lows at Fax, his dropped ball in the semi to the winning DG in the GF, one of my favourite players over recent years and i wish him all the best for the future.

Crikey.

What a signing. A fair swap with Handforth as far as i'm concerned.

It would seem the A644 isn't a one way street.

Good luck Mr.Black!

Delighted with this signing.

Black didnt have his best season last year, but still absolute quality, as the comments from the Fax fans on here will testify.

Dont feel at all as disappointed about Handforth now.

If the Aizue rumours are true too, even better.

Bye Ben, thank you for the great memories.

Strange one is, or am I the only person who thinks Black is better than both Handforth and Thackeray, even with Black's patchy form this season?

no.

Good luck Blacky, all the best. You've had some brilliant moments playing for Halifax over the years.

suppose time will tell on that one.As a fax fan though i beleive Harrison has got this right,much as ive enjoyed Bens stints here.

Harrison most definitely has done the right thing, we need consistency, Ben has never had that, hes a match winner on his day and can break defences at any level, unfortunately Bens flaky confidence, poor defence and lack of consistency has always held him back, and thats why he was in the UK to start with and not playing for a bigger Aussie Club, cheers all the same Ben and good luck. Some very exciting moments over the years.

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.

thanks Ben for the great years you have given us. good luck at Batley,
we will allways remeber you.
