Good effort, I'd have struggled to come up with so many without some serious research!

Tigertot- I can understand your logic playing Sinfield at hooker but in 14 years at Leeds I bet he's only done it 5-10 times. Not sure you can name him there in a greatest side. Although it's all about opinions!

agreed it is all about opinions but to accomodate sinfield at nine when we have had some very good hookers play there over the years ward ,fisher, simms, maskill, disko, newton, jackson and buderus is just plain cheating

Mission impossible - been watching the game too long...

Okay here's my somewhat considered response...

John Holmes

Eric Grothe
Syd Hynes
Keith Senior
John Atkinson

Iestyn Harris
Mick Shoebottom

Barry McDermott
David Ward
Jamie Peacock
Bill Ramsey
Phil Cookson
Ray Batten

Kevin Sinfield
Steve Pitchford
Aidrian Morley
Ali Luaitiiti

Better post this quickly I can sense my mind changing already

Easier to pick an all time Leeds side you'd enjoy watching most. Much as I'd like to include the likes of Gallagaher, Tuipolutu and Ian Scott this Leeds side would take some beating for entertainment value:

Andrew Ettingshausen
Eric Grothe
Garry Schofield
Craig Innes
Norman Francis
Cliff Lyons
Bobby Goulding
Barrie McDermott
Tony Fisher
Gary Rose
Craig Izzard
Alan Rathbone
Ellery Hanley

No one would mess with that pack of forwards!

1: E.T.
2: Carl Gibson
3: Tony Currie
4: Keith Senior
5: Eric Grothe
6: Garry Schofield
7: Cliff Lyons
8: Craig Izzard
9: David Ward
10: Jamie Peacock
11: Ali Lauititi
12: Gareth Ellis
13: Kevin Sinfield

14: Paul Medley
15: Wayne McDonald
16: Barry McDermott
17: Danny McGuire

It was more based on his limited appearances there for GB. I'm not sure I've ever seen him there for Leeds, but I felt I had to fit him in somewhere. Ward was past his best when I first started watching Leeds. Maskill was average. Diskin was just coming to his best when he was cruelly injured for GB. Newton was far better at Wigan. Jackson, I almost put him on the subs bench, but concluded he wasn't at Leeds long enough. Buderus, while a better hooker than any of the aforementioned modern players is not the player he was, nor has he contributed to the extent of Sinfield in his time.

Tigs you should go for Tony Fisher given that we watched him on that cup final video versus Leigh!

As ever, I was the model of professionalism & impartiality. I do look forward to the hardest 17 thread though.

Backo!!!!!!!!!!!

I've got a photo of myself with Marc Glanville,Brad Godden and ' marvellous' Marvin Golden taken in the old Lewis's department store. think it was 1999 cup final year. Oh and I spotted Leroy Rivett at East Leeds game last week

Each to their own and all that, but I cant believe people have put Medley in their teams.

Fair enough, he scored plenty of spectacular tries in his time at Bradford, but from my vague memories, he was absolutely nothing special during his spell at Leeds. Infact, I'm sure I remember alot of people had him down as a bit of a hide and seek champion when the going got tough.

I may be totally confused and barking up the complete wrong tree here, but, wasnt part of the reason he left Leeds because the coaching staff didnt think he had his team mates backs covered for if/when it kicked off?

I can recall being mighty p*ssed off at how he ran the ball in with such vigour for Bradford, when for Leeds he was a big wet lettuce.
