Sadly it's rather slender.The scheme was launched in 1988, when experts selected 9 original inductees, the players considered to be the very greatest in the game's history. They were Harold Wagstaff, Jim Sullivan, Albert Rosenfeld, Gus Risman, Jonty Parkin, Alex Murphy, Billy Boston, Brian Bevan and Billy Batten Not much of a Halifax connection there, you might think. But you'd be wrong. One of them actually turned out for us once, and later became first team coach for a couple of seasons. Just which one it was will be revealed lower down. Since 1988 another 19 names have joined these originals. This time there are two Halifax connections, though not as players. Roger Millward, add- ed in the year 2000, was our coach from May 1991 to December 1992, when he was replaced by our other Hall of Fame link, Malcolm Reilly, who joined the roll of honour in 2014 Roger Millward at Thrum Hall, 1992.

  • RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL the Supreme Code Almost Alone
    RUGBY LEAGUE FOOTBALL The Supreme Code Almost alone among all other sports, the birth of rugby league has a precise date: Thursday, 29 August 1895. Rich in symbolism and potent in its apparent demonstration of northern distinctiveness and self-assertion, it was on this date that twenty-one of the leading rugby clubs in the north of England met at the George Hotel in Huddersfield to found the Northern Rugby Football Union, better known as the Northern Union. A letter to the ‘Yorkshire Post’ on 21 September 1895 summed up the feelings of the Northern Union’s supporters ‘ I say with Mark Twain’s, bold bad boy, that we glory in the sentence of outlawry pronounced on us, as freeing us from the tyrannical bondage of the English [Rugby] Union, and we breath pure air in being freed from the stifling atmosphere of deceit in which we previously existed’ The Northern Union’s heartlands were regions that had been built on the industrial powerhouses of the Victorian era; coal and textiles in Lancashire and West Yorkshire, shipbuilding in Barrow, docks in Hull, chemicals in Widnes and glass manufacture in St Helens and the Wakefield area. It’s players, spectators and officials were drawn from these industries and the communities that had grown up around them. The Northern Union immediately revived the debate on the need to make rugby more attractive and transform the game from purely a professional version of rugby union into a separate and distinct sport with its own rules and playing style. In 1897 scoring values were standardised with all goals valued at 2 points and tries worth 3 points.
