If we're talking "favourite", for me it would have to be our Captain incumbent... Kevin Sinfield.

The man is everything a rugby player should be, both on and off the field.

Off the field he's professional to the hilt, leads by example and will go that extra mile for the club.

On it, he's one of the best passer of the ball the game has seen (an under-rated skill IMO), kicking game to beat any team (on his day), a "Rugby Brain" which has to go down in the top 20 of all time, goal kicking stats over 80% for as long as I can remember (not to mention goal kicking under pressure), and as a Captain and leader of men we couldn't wish for better.

Some memorable "Sinnie" moments would include (and I have the worlds worst memory so these are all pretty recent)...

1) The try saving, and ultimately Grand Final winning, tackle on Kyle Eastmond.
2) The countless sideline conversions (most notably Warrington at Headingley!)
3) Drop Goal Hero (45 metre effort at Warrington this year was a classic)
4) The "Sinfield" restart (10m Grubber from the tee)
5) The pass that sent Donald down the wing, for Scott to then chip it back to McGuire for an under the sticks length of the field try at Headingley. Huge part of that move coming off!
6) The try against Bradford with the spin that left the defence wondering what the hell had happened.
7) The opening try against Wigan just gone. At the time (meaning before we went on to lose the game) that was an awesome effort. Practically everybody in the ground (including Wigan defence) would've put money on him sending Ryan over. He'd effectively worked all season long to be in a position where Wigan were convinced he'd pass.
8[i)[/i The pin point chip at Odsal for McGuire's diving catch and try.

I could go on and on picking out "moments" but moments of brilliance aside, the man is just everything to our club. I'm the same age as Kevin so I've literally grown up watching him. He is certainly my generations "John Holmes" and I hope that when one day the time comes and Kevin goes, the kids of the future appreciate just how much the man has done (and hopefully will continue to do) for our club.

My favourite player of all time by a mile.

Definitely Will Carling

No, for England has to be David Duckham, then Richard Sharp.

Henderson Gill. not the greatest player but one of the more colourful characters.

Kevin Sinfield for guiding Leeds to the greatest period in their history.

LEWIS JONES without a doubt

Barrie McDermott for me, when i started playing rugby in 1995 (at 7) I was a prop and was justing getting into leeds rhinos, and just took a liking to Barrie, at my folks house pinned up on the notice board is still a piece of work i did in primary school titled "My Hero Barrie McDermott"

ignore double posting

Why didn't you just delete the 2nd one

I would agree. Chicken George was a freak like GI. But senior is well up there with the great centres of rl.

Brett Kenny, undoubtedly the most gifted classical stand off ever to take a field. The man had everything.

Close second, Wally Lewis. Valiant third to Laurie Daley.

Schofield would be up there but, I just can't forgive the man for trading his talant for few good nights out.

Ok I'll forgive the abuse of grammar and join in. Nostalgia tempts me to say the ubiquitous John Holmes or the bionic barrel....but I have to say one certain Mr. McGuire takes some beating. His uncanny poaching ability even possibly surpasses Schofield's.
Just hope his recent injury hasn't blunted that rapier skill.

My 1st real Leeds hero was Schoey then i was in awe of Harris but it has to be Sinfield for all the reasons Remakable Rhinos lists.
The 1st 2 were fantastic players in some good teams BUT Sinfield stands out and has led an outstanding team/squad with distinction and success imo.
