Think I did this year's ago but last night made me think again. So can we have a best 13 for Leeds from Aussies or New Zealanders. Mine are from watching since 1987.

Can't believe I forgot Glanville!

Then again tho I'd have Iro over Carroll. Both played when they wanted to..

JOEL MOON isnt to be sniffed at, serious not webb in his first few years was great

I'd have Godden over Iro or Carroll judged solely on their Leeds performances.

Theres always some sod that throws ettinghausen in when this comes up.

Why Leeds thought Gary Spencer was a better full-back than ET in his prime I will never know. Absolutely wasted on the wing for half of his second spell.

Eric Grothe always seems a popular choice in threads like this, probably because the season he played coincides with the time certain posters started watching the game, which is fair enough, but I don't see how you can pick an overseas 13 without putting Eric Harris in it.

Seriously hard to find a full backline of duff backs from my time watching though plenty more duff forwards, such as eastwood, hauraki, mathiou

A bit unfair to include Robbie Mears. He was going well until Sonny Nickle decided to break his jaw.

Morvin Edwards could fill in in that back line at full back or centre

I'd be looking at the class of Bob Morris, Mark Wilkes, Rex Terp and the unforgettable Peter Smith, with an honourable mention to Joe Vickery in the modern era.

Don't forget the 'Worlds greatest rugby player' John Gallagher

The Eagle's absent scrum-half berth could have been filled by David Cruickshank, who left two remaining memories. 1 - getting sent off very early V St Helens at Headingley possibly at 0-0 (high shot on Paul Groves, IIRC) and Leeds playing arguably their greatest game of 12 man rugby league in their history and 2 - depositing 'last night's beer' all over Wilderspool, lovely.

Mark Brooke Cowden. He could be in with a shout too. Longevity and quality

There's so much wrong with this I don't know where to start

Morvin was a decent player, and certainly brave. The amount of clothesline tackles he took I thought he must have been sleeping with the wives of half the Rugby League players across the north.

I'm probably being a bit unfair to him. I do remember him going through a period of dropping a lot of kicks though, wasn't he moved to centre because of this?

He must have had enough of the high tackles though, I'm sure he got sent off at Warrington for producing one of his own
