Although i've left out some legends likes Holmes ,Atkinson ,Dyl ,i cant honestly say they were at their "peak" when i started watching and they were names my old man used to glow when talking about.
Also harsh on players like Roy Powell ,Godden ,Fallon ,Fleary ,Farrell ,Maskill ,Furner etc etc but it's hard to choos when the scope is so wide.
RE-Hanley not making it a fantastic player no doubts at all but i always have more fond memories of Glanville for some reason.

so tough to remember let alone choose a 17 going back to 78/79 but here goes:

Harris
Grothe
Schofield
Senior
Atkinson

Holmes / Lyons - head says Lyons as was old enough to appreciate him. Heart says Holmesy as first rugby hero but sadly never saw him (when i was old enough) at his absolute peak
Goulding / Burrow - unless I've missed someone obvious, just realised that we've not had a truely world class scrum half in my lifetime of watching

Peacock
Ward
McDermott
Laurie
Lauitiiti
Hanley

Subs - Sinfield, Morley, Ellis, Powell

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj] Kevin Sinfield:982.jpg

[b:3v5chy3z]Brian McDermott paraphrased Peter Fox. "He'd say if we had 13 Bernard Dwyers we wouldn't lose many RL games. It's the same for us with JJB"[/b:3v5chy3z]:38511.jpg
