Robb stark Posible small/regency council of the north during the war of five Kings?

This is a fun counterfactual - but we shall assume several things and do away with with several of the blunders and catastrophes that make it possible for King Robb to need a Regency Council in the first place.

Lady Catelyn Stark, the actual named Regent of Winterfell

Ser Edmure Tully, as representative of Riverrun assuming Lord Hoster is still alive; if Edmure is Lord, then Ser Brynden

Lord Wyman Manderly,

 - after that it becomes more questionable:  which of the Stark Bannermen are among the first rank?  The Boltons and Karstarks, but they seem unreliable. Lords Flint, Cerywn? Ladies Dustin or Mormont?

- similarly, they would need to include a few powerful Riverlords as well - Lord Mallister? Lord Piper? Braken or  Blackwood?   And also what do you about House Frey? They are the mightiest of the houses sworn to Riverrun, and I guess, in this scenario, Lord Walder is goodfather to King Robb,

Robb just tended to call councils of whoever happened to be around. That's how the whole king in the North idea got floated and passed by acclamation. 

Yep. I always viewed it as "Northmen ain't got time for that shit." Too formal, too much politics.
