Am I right in thinking that Sinfield only requires 68 points to take the club points scoring record?I wanted to try to gauge my next trip home for the game he may break it,but his scoring rate recently he could do it in march and it could be bit too early for me

That's correct.

Taking this season's average as a guide (330 from 36 = 9.17) it'll be during his 8th appearance of 2012.

Obviously it's impossible to know when his 8th appearance will come even if that proves to be the game when the record goes.

Bearing that in mind the 8th Leeds game of this season was 1st April 2011 and Sinfield had added 1 try, 32 goals and a drop goal for a total of 69 points.

So, potentially...

Game 7 - 16th March at Salford
Game 8 - 24th March at Saints
Game 9 - 30th March v Huddersfield
Game 10 - 6th April at Bradford
Game 11 - 9th April v London

It would be nice if he could do it at home against Huddersfield although at Saints new ground with a recognition of it at Headingley the following week would be Ok as well.

Ive just been on Rhinos website ansd noticed Sinfield is on 399 apps ,so he will make 400 on feb 3rd?

I think it must. Checking in the handbook, which arrived this morning with my new season ticket, he's made 372 starting appearances and 27 substitute ones, making 399.

Either way he has a good chance of making 400 starts this year ,great achievement

Yes, that's the total I have and the correct split for Sinfield's 1st grade career with Leeds:

Appearances - 399
Starts - 372
Substitute - 27

Tries - 67
Goals - 1279
Drop Goals -27
Points - 2853

After hitting the 400 his next landmark will be his 300th start in the SL Regular Rounds as he currently rests on 297. He also needs one try for 50 in the Regular Rounds.

Life must be almost like one long milestone for Sinfield.

Tvoc ?Just been reading when Sinfield makes his 400th app for Leeds ,He will be only the 11th player to do so.Ive got counted of my head to 7 J Holmes, F webster ,J brough ,J Atkinson,D ward,R Batten,D Ward,and maybe Alan Smith.Who are the others to make the 400?

Good question.

I have no complete count but using a combination of the Headingley Story and my own records post 1979/80 I can also get to a total of ten names.

Using Appearances (under which heading I include starts and substitutions)

1 - 624 - John Holmes (603 + 21) noted that other records show 625 (604 + 21)
2 - 543 - Fred Webster
3 - 518 - John Atkinson (512 + 6)
4 - 480 - David Ward (440 + 40)
5 - 479 - Alan Smith (468 + 11)
6 - 442 - Jim Brough
7 - 434 - Ray Batten (420 + 14)
8 - 432 - Les Dyl (418 + 14)
9 - 415 - Evan Williams
10 - 410 - Neil Hague (392 + 1icon_cool.gif

It is noticable that two world wars prevented others from achieving this 400 milestone

The all-time Leeds points scoring record countdown is on so I'll be posting an updated count after each match until Lewis Jones' long standing total is finally eclipsed.

After Round 1's 10 point haul Sinfield is now on 2,863 (57 to tie 2,920 - 58 to claim the record outright)

_________

Assuming he plays at Wigan - Ryan Bailey, after making his 200th SL Regular Round appearance last week and becoming the 9th Leeds player to do so with the club will this week make his 250th Leeds appearance in all comps, again becoming the 9th Leeds player to do that also.

The previous eight werefor the following:

Danny McGuire needs one appearance to reach 300 for his career. McGuire made his Leeds debut against Salford at Headingley on 6 July, 2001 and has played in 271 games for the Rhinos since then.

McGuire has made 12 Test appearances for Great Britain (2004 & 2006-2007) and also played for the Lions in the 2006 Tri-Nations warm-up game against Newcastle Division.

He also has representative honours for England (7 games, 2008-2009); England 'A' (6 games, 2002-2003) and England under-21s (2 games, 2001).

Very possible Mcguire could make his 300th appearance for Leeds in the Grand Final then. Would be good to round that milestone of with a win. Could he do it in the Challenge Cup final?

This core group of players have all been here so long now should be quite a number hit the 300 mark hence the year after year testimonlials
