If I was given the chance to pick a team at that time,that may have been it!

Bill, I would probably agree but could you write in on your team sheet, the name of player on the back row, 3rd in from right, standing in between Slevin and Ashcroft?

I'll try to answer my own question, is it J Large? if not is it H McIntyre? (not Len, he came later). If it's J Large then it could be the 1949 match, played on October 15th against Oldham (would explain kit), won 39-15, if it's H McIntyre then it's 1949 again, played on December 27th against Leigh (again it would explain kit) won 23-5, but there again I might be completely wrong.

Yes it is Jack Large.

Oct 15th 1949 v Oldham fits the players shown.
