Yikes, these quiz questions are hard, please can I have some SL based questions involving the Rhinos?

Pat Quinn.

I'd still say there was a fairly obvious full back missing - the Tait's understudy one - an England international too.

Dean Bell's first signing - a Cumbrian centre who also played reserve grade at loose forward. Seem to recall he then played for Sheffield.

Paul Cook?

Neil Kite?

Well played Mr Gilder, well played.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned Ackerman at full back, but here's a piece about him and Campese on Wiki. Hard to believe that this is the same thoroughbred who played in the blue and amber? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Campese#Hu ... t_Ackerman

Impressive - though only a fraction of a second from blowing a try.

On the one-game wonders topic -

Aussie half-back who appeared for one game in the late 80s on trial, never to be seen again (over here anyways)?

Hmmm......was he an Aussie that was born in Yorkshire but moved to Oz as a baby?

Carl Grigg? Didin't he also have a couple of games for Wakey?

That's who I was thinking of.

Carl Grigg played twice for Leeds, if not him then Mark Wilkes but he played three times.

Not sure which one was the Aussie though without checking.

30 years (1979 - 2009) of one game Leeds wonders:

Peter Lister, Neil Battye, Ikram Butt, Chris Chapman, Michael Haley
Jonny Hepworth, Kevin James, Alan Julian, Nathan McAvoy, Paul Worthy
Scott Murrell, Nathan Picchi, John Riley, Anthony Barrett, Jon Liddell
Steve Pilgrim, Alan Rathbone, Martin Smithson, Gary Stephens, Rex Terp

Current:
Joe Chandler, Michael Ratu

a couple of other fullbacks

Bev Risman
Willie Oulton
Phil Holmes
John Holmes

Andrew Ettinghausen ???? maybe

Only fullback I can remember at Leeds was Danny McGuire V Wigan at Headingley in 2003.

Not on the official teamsheet though.

Leeds Fullbacks -

SL Era - All Comps - Starts At Full-Back

Richard Mathers - 87
Francis Cummins - 81
Brent Webb - 66
Iestyn Harris - 56
Marcus St Hilaire - 31
Gary Connolly - 29
Damian Gibson - 23
Lee Smith - 22
Jordan Tansey - 13
Anthony Gibbons - 9
Brett mullins - 7
Ben Walker - 6
Graham Holroyd - 5
Lee Maher - 4
Ben Jones-Bishop - 3
Alan Tait - 3
Richie Blackmore - 1
Danny McGuire - 1 (See Above)

Total = 447

It was Carl Grigg I was thinking of tvoc, didn't realise he'd played twice - thought it was just that away game at Sheffield.

Wasn't he from Morley via Perth, WA or something like that?

Some memories there.

Didn't Paul Cook fill in at FB IIRC on a few occasions?????

Bev Risman - seemed to have all the time in the world,sheer class like John Holmes.

Yep, quite a few but he went to Bradford just before Superleague started.

I didn't know the original question resticted it to just the Super League era??

Doesn't matter either way.

Thanks for the confirmation.

It wasn't...but TVOC's list that you quoted was.

As per PA's reply. I listed SL Era in total (447 games) as that info I have to hand.

I'll do a list of full backs from 1979/80 to 1995 Centenary Season (without totals) shortly for a definative close on 30 year list.

Mark Conway played at least one game at fullback for Leeds (and he was dreadful)- he played FB for GB Colts I believe.

Gary Lord?

Tony Currie played FB against Aukland as I recall.

Leeds full backs in the order that they first played the position from 1979/80 to 1995/96 Centenary Season:

Neil Hague
Willie Oulton
Ian Wilkinson
Tony Binder
Paul Gill
David Healy
Tony Currie
Neil Hunt
Mark Conway
Andrew Ettingshausen
Trevor Clark
David Creasser
Gary Spencer
Marty Gurr
Errol Johnson
Gary Lord
Warren Wilson
Rex Terp
Phil Ford
John Gallagher
Rob Ackerman
Morvin Edwards
Stuart Arundel
Alan Tait (also SL list)
Steve Pilgrim
Paul Cook
Lee Maher (also SL list)
Graham Holryd (also SL list)
Anthony Gibbons (also SL list)

Major surprise in there has to be Trevor Clark, the hooker, who also started a few games for Leeds at centre.

Very underrated player IMO.
