I didn’t pick him either and certainly Luke is not getting anywhere near, just raising that in big games which are the most important his record will stand the test of time.

Gonna go for players I've see play live & from my era the team I'd go for personally:

1.Webb - Was outstanding Attacking fullback was one of first full backs too change the way teams attacked.
2. Donald- Was a pretty safe winger with Pace too burn his all time best moment has too be his try in 2007 GF.
3.Watkins- Probably could have been better than he was but in his prime between 2013-2017 he was electric too watch.
4. Senior- Was big strong & durable knew how too put his winger away as well.
5. Great Finisher, big & Strong & think if he went too NRL before 2019 ( should have gone after 2015 GF or 2016 season) he'd be seen as one of best wingers in NRL & SL not just SL.
6. Mcguire- Great support player & Finisher your not SL record Try scorer for nothing.
7. Burrow- Not many players like him he's one of a kind made something happen nearly every time he got the ball & scored the greatest individual try in a GF of all time for me in 2011.
8. Leuluai- Solid as they come could whack and never too a backward step.
9. Diskin- Buderus runs him close but Diskin was very good for leeds for a while before Buderus came on the scene.
10. Peacock if you needed inspiration or someone too come up with that carry JP always did it a true Professional & RL Warrior.
11.JJB- Ellis Runs him close but JJB was so loyal like many others on this team. But JJB was so resilient after injuries etc he was Leeds Through & Through.
12. Morley- Wish he Came back too Leeds before he retired ideally after he came back from NRL was tough & RL warrior like JP.
13. Sinfield- The Greatest Captain in RL for me ( not player by a long way) but his leadership was second too none in both hemispheres and he continues too be an outstanding leader too this very day.

14. Lauit'titi- Great skill set for a big man. And could come up with magic when needed.
15. Buderus- Was a classy hooker and we did well too get him for 3 seasons.
16. Ellis- He could start in this team but he has too get in wish he stayed longer or returned after his NRL stint for a season or two.
17. Cuthbertson- Was a good servant and in 2015 should have been Man of Steel for me his offloading game changed the way we attacked that year and we scored great tries.

Coach Brian Mclennan - This one is probably tougher than picking the team Brian Mac is most successful Leeds coach of all time and I know he inherited the golden Generation in their prime but he still did a lot of work with his teams that led too our success. Tony Smith gave us the Golden Generation and we have a lot too be thankful too him for but. Bluey just pips them both for getting us too win 3 Super league titles in a row between 2007-2009 ( Even though Smith got the 07 title.

Honorable mentions- Lee Smith, Delaney, Ablett, Harris, Moon, Holmes, Hanley, Mcdermott, Hardaker and probably more I'll think of after I've posted this.

No Andy Gregory? If you're picking players at their peak Gregory would be in the conversation I'd think and apologies if he has been picked earlier - to me he was an extra prop playing 7 with all the natural gifts of a brilliant scrum half and of course , you had Ellery Hanley, the best player I have ever seen in my 50 plus years as a fan, wow - as a Hull fan I am slightly jealous but what a game that would be- the best Hull team against the best Leeds 13- who is having Lee Crooks?

Sorry but don’t think that game would be much of a contest…..!

You're probably too young, but I can remember Leeds getting beaten time after time by the great Hull teams of the early eighties. Both Hull and KR were several cuts above.

ME too with all the kiwis , norton and casey

Going to the Boulevard used to be incredibly difficult.
Ugh I'm having John Gallagher flashbacks.

Kemble, Leuluai, Ah Kuoi, O'Hara etc.

A "best of" Hull team would've given any counterpart a rough ride, especially at the Boulevard on a cold night. Zero doubt.

They gave the 82 Kangaroos a very tough night. Nuff said.

In my time, I may have missed some but this is a more than useful outfit.
Prescott

Kylie’s uncle
O’Hara
Topliss
Sterling
Skerrett
Swain
Crooks
Ellis
Fitzgibbon
Knocker Norton

Think Kemble and Richie Barnett (Kiwi) are a good shout for fullback in that side too.

Not pleasant. Dropping a bomb behind the posts to hand victory to Hull, just a week after a last minute winner at Cas the week before.

Poor John Gallagher. Should never have switched codes.
