I've just dug my 1985 CC final programme with such illustrious autographs I collected that day as Clive Sullivan,Bernard Cribbins,Collin Wellend and even Neil Kinnock!!!
But not one of those Superstars could surpass my most cherished signature on that front cover.
That of former Leeds RLFC kitman Harvey Standeven!!

| Except Harvey Stendeven was no kit man, he was the highly regarded and respected cigar smoking physio.
The Leeds kit-man in Harvey's day was ex Leeds second-row Alan Horsfall.

| Chris Clarkson to play...because he built our new conservatory last year and it would make his dad Peter very proud I would imagine.

Was he the old bloke with glasses that was always grinning in the background whenever the 'Scrumdown' cameras went inside the Leeds dressing room at the end of a game ?

| Harvey Standeven = legend.
It speaks volumes for his skill that he could run on to treat an injured player carrying only a bucket of water. Look at all the crap they need nowadays to get them up and running again.

Nah, that sounds like Nobby Stiles, how did he get in there.
Alan Horsfall was more like Ronnie and Reggie's mean uncle.

| It's quite nice to have 20 or so players who might be in the 17, and gives some scope for some of the inevitable injuries over the next few weeks. Having one more quality back than you need, two top class dummy halves and plenty of pretty versatile forwards isn't a bad situation to be in if you ask me.
I'd like to see Clarkson play. He's been given a shirt largely due to injuries, but his tackling effort on Saturday, and some other good performances ought to be enough for him to keep it in my book. He certainly hasn't been our worst back rower since he's come into the side, or given anybody reason to think he might let them down on a big occasion.

Says a lot about Warrington's improvement, that that comment could just as easily apply to us.

But yes AH I think it was the man himself who was often to be found on Scrumdown.

| I wouldn't be best happy if Clarkson lost his spot in the final if Ali is fit in order to be replaced by Eastwood. You can argue that it did Sinny and McGuire no harm to miss the final at a similar time in their careers but I think Clarky has been one of our better players this year and to see him miss out in favour of Eastwood who's done the dirty on the club would be wrong IMO.

If Senior (or McGuire or Sinfield or Peacock...you get my drift) did the equivalent "dirty" on the club would you omit that player too ?
You surely have to play your best 17 ...the ones most likely to succeed, help achieve the victory and lift the trophy.
Why would Clark have to lose out specifically to Eastwood ? Clark might earn his place in favour over Ablett for example. Let's see what happens over the next couple of weeks: it would be foolish to omit Eastwood if he is in forward busting dynamic world beating form.
