SL Era:

Leeds' youngest starting front row selection - 4th August 1996, Leeds 18 - 56 Bradford

Nick Fozzard 19, Paddy Handley 20, Barrie McDermott 24 - combined age 63.95

Leeds' oldest starting front row selection - 3rd May 2013, Bradford 22 - 42 Leeds

Kylie Leuluai 35, Rob Burrow 30, Jamie Peacock 35 - combined age 101.08

Of course as long as the current front row continue they will inevitably break their own record week after week.

(To this point only one other Leeds starting front row has broken the 101 year mark and they did it only once - in the 2011 Grand Final - Leuluai, Buderus, Peacock were all 33 and change with the collective change edging the total to 101.01)

The early part of the '86/7 season did throw up another possibility when Grayshon (37) was paired up with Trevor Skerrett (33) but I imagine Bob Morris (age?) may have let their collective credentials down.

Morris was 25, if the Sydney Morning Herald is to be trusted, which (David Hard?) it probably isn't.

Thanks for that.

I'm too lazy/busy (*delete as applicable) to spend half a day rooting through scrapbooks and programmes to confirm but I'd have guessed him being around there give or take a year or two closer to thirty. Morris must have had a tough paper round as a kid.

No comment. Just reporting on the ages of the players nominally selected in those positions on the teamsheet.

nominally is prob correct

of the scrums in a game how many does he actually pack down as hooker, how many @ loose forward or back @ scrum half?

If either of our hookers had to strike for the ball could they reach it?

Ah, the great Bob Morris/Peter Smith combination. I had tried to blank that from memory given that those two were just about the worst imports ever. In an era where most clubs managed to sign quite decent 'no name' forwards from Australia, Leeds managed to find two who were completely useless.

"He's the best coach I've had... His mix of man-management and his game plan is second to none. Since Brian Mac has been in charge, we've been in every final so far. I love playing for him. I can't praise him enough, I've so much respect for him and I hope he's here for a very long time." Kevin Sinfield 29/9/12:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_68506.jpg



Now on Rhinos website too - really good news.

Bumped into those two in the, now long closed, Cherry Tree pub on Dolly Lane,Leeds 9 Friendly enough guys,but as you say completely useless ! Also with them was Mark McGaw who was far from useless !

Peter Smith and Bob Morris both made exactly ten appearances for Leeds so will have each qualified (just) for one of those unique number thingies that Leeds briefly dabbled with a season or three ago.

'Sparkles' McGaw appeared to be a happy accident as his initial arrival was portrayed as him coming over to keep his mate company. His mate was a good player also and was entirely responsible for the better half suddenly becoming an avid rugby watcher for all of about five minutes.

Stand to be corrected, but didn't McGaw go on to play Origin? Sign of a not too shabby player

Mark McGaw went on to play Origin and Test football including the 1990 Kangaroo Tour and became a TV gladiator back home in Australia - character name of Hammer.

Andrew Ettingshausen bringing along his mate to Headingley was the kind of accident you don't mind having.
