Although i've left out some legends likes Holmes ,Atkinson ,Dyl ,i cant honestly say they were at their "peak" when i started watching and they were names my old man used to glow when talking about.
Also harsh on players like Roy Powell ,Godden ,Fallon ,Fleary ,Farrell ,Maskill ,Furner etc etc but it's hard to choos when the scope is so wide.
RE-Hanley not making it a fantastic player no doubts at all but i always have more fond memories of Glanville for some reason.'"
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.

| I'm on my 13th Season Ticket which puts my first season with a ST at 1998. Attended games before that but with parents and didn't pay much attention.
The problem I have with this is that I have one of the very worst memories in the world, so this is likely to be very recent in most cases...

[size=85*Not seen him mentioned yet. It may be nostalgia but I'll always have a soft-spot for Scotty and remember some glorious tries and him as a massive contributor to the '3 in a Row' team.
**Just want him in the team somewhere.[/size

| Quote Gotcha="Gotcha"Presumed you had been watching longer than that for some reason. Apologies for probably adding on years.
I have to be honest and say that although watching since 1978, I can't honestly remember off the top of my head some of the names, even though in reality they were actually pretty good players in their own right.
ET, Harris, Sinfield, Hanley, Schofield, Crooks, Tunks, McGuire, Morley, Ellis, Grothe, Morris, are all players I can say off the top of my head I would look to place in a best team though.
Edit: Forgot to add David Ward, and one of my all time favouries despite only playing a short while, Izzard.'"
Thought about it now a bit, although still unsure.

From what I recall, Medley left after a fall out with Mal Reilly. Whilst at Leeds he produced some outstanding performances including coming on for the last twenty minutes in a match against Bradford where we were being hammered. He single handedly turned the match around and won the man of the match. (i think it may have been a Yorkshire cup game, the year we won it.)
Just as people aren't including players who were outstanding elsewhere, but a bit past their best when they played for Leeds, I included Medley because whilst he didn't do much elsewhere, when he was at Leeds he appeared unstopable.

He's someone who would have benifitted playing the modern game. He didn't appear to be able to do it over 80 minutes, but in spells he could be devastating.
I seem to recall that when the 1988 GB squad got together for training, he was second only to Offiah over 100 yards.

1. Harris

3. Innes
4. Senior
5. Hall
6. Sinfield (c)
7. McGuire
8. JP
9. Diskin (pre knee!)
10 Barrie Mac
11. Ellis
12. Ali
13. Glanville
14.Mozza
15.Fleary
16. Hanley
17. D.Powell
Special mentions(only failed to make the 13 due to balance of team with Sinfield and Harris I couldn't afford any more chiefs): Schofield (never saw him play centre for Leeds so can't really pick him there), Burrow
Squad members: , Godden, Webb, JJB, Ablett, Godden, Mercer, Cummins (bit of a sentimental pick), Furner, Bai, R.Powell, Dixon, Creaser, Carroll, Calderwood, Walker, Bailey, Gibson
I'd have to say that 7 and 9 were the positions we had the least options and centre perhaps the most.

I'd agree with that, especially in the "90's onwards" era.
At centre you have Schofield, Gibson, Innes, Iro, Godden, Carroll, Senior and players who did a job for us there such as Walker and Blackmore don't even get a mention.
Hooker for me was a straight choice between Diskin and Buderus. In a Leeds legends team I'd pick Diskin. In a best ever watched team Buderus wins hands down.
Scrum half was either Burrow or McGuire to play alongside Sinfield - as you say limited options.
