Hey, 'A' team legend was Gilly, not that you are wrong though. I thought he had promise until he broke his leg. Might not have had too much pace, but had the heart of a lion. |

One day a Leeds no.6 called Ben Walker will erase the memory of that individual, and when the name Ben Walker is heard at HQ, there will only be fond memories of a rugby legend. I reckon 2021 season should just about be the time to watch out for.

Ben Walker should be remembered for the left footed goal he kicked from the Southstand side rather than the poor management which ruined his career. Confidence players playing with no confidence are not great.

Great tackler, which is why he wasn't in my list. I was at the game (Saints I think) when he broke his femur. |

I thought it's not something I'd have made up. |

Never thought he was that bad to be honest. I think Leeds fans have always had high expectations for the 6 shirt, a bit like a Welsh RU 10. Rickie Lulham made him look like Brett Kenney. |

Not having that. Stormin Norman's one fingered ankle taps were great. I swear I once saw him smoking a spliff during a game, so laid back was he.
How many times did Pat Mitchell play 1st team btw? |

I think Pat only played one or two games, certainly not more than half a dozen, but I'm pretty sure he did play. If he didn't then Gleadhill or "Leakin" Leigh Deakin get's my nod.

In mitigation, with Hugh Wadell, we got him off the back of a decent GB series. His big problem was that IIRC 'Fred Flinstone' was tea-total and thus, not a member of the THT Drinking Club that was prevalent at Headingley at the time.
Peter Smith alledged of the parish of Illawarra, is the worst Leeds player I (or anyone) has ever seen ....

I wouldn't worry too much as although you've spelt it wrong (and didn't even attempt a christain name) the Admiral's attempt is even wider of the mark.
Sateki Tuipulotu - for anyone who gives a damn. |
