CLinch the pinch. By a country mile

Has to be Clinch the Pinch!

Clinch

Well I'll have to nominate Black.

He never got the chance to play with us in Super League but I've no doubt he would do just as good a job. Here's a few stats for you about the players


Clinch
Games: 52 (Super League 2001 & 2002)
Tries: 6
Goals: 14

Black
Games: 75
Tries: 59
Goals: 8

Can I have a combination of Black & Clinch please?

If not, think it would have to be Benny Black for what he has done for us & basically turned us around despite Faz! Think Clinchy was at his best for us round 1998.

Jeez this is toughey...

My first thought was Clinch. I thought he was inspirational and his "pinch" was legeondary.

But

Looking at the stats above Blacky is head and shoulders above....

Hm I was going to go with Clinch but looking at those stats..

Going to go with Black.

Ben Black for me. Most exciting runner with ball in hand we have seen since Smoking Joe.

ben black but not a lot in it!

I am going to go with Ben Black.

Easily Ben Black! The most exciting player to pull on a Fax shirt this past decade IMO! Super League quality.

I was going to go with Clinch also but I am plumping for black...

Black to do the running and dunneman to do the organisation and kicking.. perfect.

I'm going for Ben Black on the basis that he hasn't dumped on us when we needed him by doing a runner to another club especially when that other club was in the division below us at the time.

Ben Black for me!

Clinch is one of the best players I have personally seen in a Halifax shirt, but this is largely based on his 98 form. He would be my choice for scrum-half of the 90s, but Black is a shoe-in for scrum-half of the 00's.

Black by a country.......................

Reckon they would?

was going to go for clinch but have had a think about it and despite never having had chance to play for us in super dooper league a have gone for blacky

Whilst Clinch was a quality player, I think this has to go to Blacky

Clinch was more of an organiser, but Blacky is just such an exciting player to watch - more of a maverick in my opinion, and Clinchy didn't have Ben's eye for the gap or off the cuff play

Hope he gets to play Sooper league with us in 2012!!!!

I'm pretty sure that last minute match winning try Black scored against Batley will sway everyone.

Touch of the Black magic.

Blackys try against Batley at Mount Un - pleasant the other year answers all questions. No other player could have scored that try that day! Sheer quality and speed from a standing start!

looks like 2 horse race.
nobody has mentioned watson, luckily.


just wish ben could pinch ball the same as clinch then would be even better.

It was a really effective defensive tool, but if were being honest, he only always attempted the rip because he couldnt tackle! but its absolute 50 50 for me

defensive??? he did it many times after a kick through n chase.
even more times ref cancelled out score due to not knowing what had happened.

Clinch couldn't spot a gap? Watch the video where we thumped Leeds at Thrum Hall and watch his first half performance. Hat-trick before halftime!
