Fletcher: Course, he sees 'imself as an authority on curry, he does, on account of where he was stationed in the army.
Rudge: Where? India?

The late 80's were so much fun.

Thanks for the memories lads. I remember the 80s for always wondering what Aussie we were going to sign next and going along in high hopes...I guess the exchange rate must have been hugely favourable back then? Didn't we once have a full 1 to 13 Aussie team? (it felt like that at times from memory)

We had either 9 or 10 in 1984/85. |

Trevor Patterson and Tony Currie produced the goods. The rest varied from reasonable to very poor in what was produced. Grothe was clearly a great player but not used properly.
I saw every game that season including away at Workington town with a crowd of less than 1,000, it may be lowest ever attendance for a competitive Leeds match. IIRC they were very unlucky to lose away at Hull KR in last game of year in premiership semi final.

I also attended the away fixture at Workington, courtesy of Wallace Arnold.
Seem to recall the feeling of being short-changed when the teams were announced over the tinniest sounding PA system imaginable that Eric Grothe wasn't playing.
Leeds scraped a win in a crap game. |

Me too. Wally Arnold. Paul Gill came out in the 2 shirt. There were some French fans who also travelled up from London to see Grothe. He was a bit of a legend after the French leg of the '82 tour. |

Probably on the same coach! 
Paul Gill replaces Eric Grothe - LOL.
Wasn't funny at the time though. |

I think there were about 30 French school kids on an exchange, tipped up to see Eric and got Paul Gill and Wally Fullerton-Smith. Who I think had one of his better games. Given he was an Aussie international, was very disappointed. A very poor man's Delaney for mine. Did lots of tackling but had nothing else

Thanks for that. Yep..i remembered it was a hell of a lot of the antipodean buggers. All Aussies too, no kiwis?
I guess word must have got out ...Leeds a good shout for a bit of easy money and holiday. They certainly won nowt for us. |

Dean Bell was supposed to be coming back but didn't. Graham Lowe didn't want Kiwi internationals coming to England, well, not until he went to Wigan anyway. Then of course Bell appeared at Wigan and hence the chants of "Judas" whenever he played against us. |
