The one where Ashton tried to nutmeg Tunks?

Tunks did have incredible long legs for a prop and a liking for the Kevin Ward style of short shorts.

That's the one. the use of 'nut' is appropriate, for both what Aston did, and for what Ashton hit.

Doh ! Only just realised I missed out Hanley....(Harris will have to make way I guess)....and Buderus will have to make way for David Ward on reflection.

It's taken five pages which is longer than usual but then I see Daryl Powell's inclusion and wonder if 'the joke' has sailed over my predominantly bald head.

Unfair on Mann & Powell at least.

Certainly is on Daryl. A player of limited ability, true, but he was a vital part of that team.


And the chap who's name you use as your username would be first on the team sheet if it was 'Most Charismatic Leeds 17'. The Southstand just loved the bloke. I wish he'd stayed more than the short time that exports used to in those days.

He certainly was. IIRC he/I debuted against Salford, came on, roly-poly and mulletted, dropped the ball, missed a tackle, and made us all think we'd signed another pudding. Then he won the game in the second half and was never less than complete entertainment from then on.

Wouldnt lose a game or a bit of biff with this team,bit of finesse,class scrum half( player of year when at Leeds).Cant understand anyone putting Buderus before Diskin unless youve only been watching Leeds since 2008/9.And Sinfield before Hanley!!!

I think Barnhill was better than that too. I'd swap Barnhill for Adamson, and I'd be sad not to find a place for Dean Lawford. Should "Mike O'Neill" have read "Mark O'Neill" too? Mike wasn't that bad, although we could swap him for Kirke and put Mark in as well.

I'd have Richie Eyres in ahead of Mann, who I quite liked as a player.

Oh, and Rombo for Rivett.

That's quite confusing if you don't mind me saying so. Perhaps you should understand others selecting class and endeavour over endeavour in the former position when you've done the same with the latter.

What tvoc said.

Sinfield has clearly been a better LEEDS player than Hanley. No question.
Diksin has clearly been a better LEEDS player than Buderus. No question.

You've seemingly picked Hanley over Sinfield based on Hanley as an overall RL Player, rather than his specific seasons at Leeds, and yet you've opted not to choose the same selection strategy with regards to Buderus. Your theory needs to be applied to both, or neither.
