I don't remember Lewis Jones, as I was born in 1977, but he's hardly an obscure Leeds player!
Leeds signed Craig Innes from New Zealand RU in a blaze of glory FFS!!

| I've not read all this thread so apologies if already mentioned, Kevin Squire anyone? I seem to recall he was a curly haired second row/loose forward from the late eighties? Came from Devon or someplace like that, decent player I thought, hardworking anyway which was more than can be said for some players of that time

He dropped off the radar in around 85-86 IIRC

I seem to remember him scoring the winning try in a CC replay at Odsal mid Eighties.

I'll go with John McNeill, a reserve hooker signed from Featherstone Rovers,in the 1980's IIRC, his claim to fame was nothing to do with his playing exploits.
He did,however, steal a full sized steamroller and proceeded to run amok with it
2 apps 80/81,6 apps 81/82,1 sub app 82/83.

Yup on both counts.
Also dropped a goal for Leeds in a fairly heavy defeat (Hull KR?). Not sure whether he thought at the time it was worth 3 points rather than just one...?

I saw him in the Cherry Tree pub,just off Mabgate. My girlfriend said he was a ' gorgeous hunk ' so I had the humiliating experience of taking a photo of the pair of them together. He was a friendly lad though.
remember Kevin Squire quite well, not a bad player,bit on the light side though.
think he got a knee injury and faded from the scene.
