Compared with Mr Buderus impressive 9 tries

Ryan Hall: 97 starts + 2 from the bench.

Coincidentally those two sub appearances were made in games V tonight's opponents.

6th May 2007, Leeds 42 Bradford 38 (Hall Debut), Cardiff, Millenium Magic 1
20th March 2008, Leeds 44 Bradford 2 (Hall played second-row from the bench)

In how many appearances?

Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Diskin will still win the stat, I'm just saying, 10 years worth of tries is obviously going to look much more impressive as a stand alone figure.

For Leeds -

Danny Buderus: 10 Tries in 57 Appearances, Scoring Rate 0.175 per game
Matt Diskin: 44 Tries in 264 Appearances, Scoring Rate 0.167 per game

Kinda makes Charlie Brown look a bit silly that doesn't it.

Ooops!

Considering they have similar scoring ratios yet Buderus is lauded over while Diskin remains unappreciated I’d consider them stats to show Buderus shouldn’t be lauded at all and we should question why spend so much for someone how merely maintained the status quo (apart from the winning titles aspect which he’s failed to do so far)

Oh yipee... another Diskin/Buderus debate. And it's not even my birthday until tomorrow!!



I take, and gracefully accept your point. Moving on.

I kindly accept your resignation

If Danny McGuire plays at Castleford on Friday he'll become the 7th player to make 250 SL Era Appearances for the club. (Of the top 10 on the appearance list, 7 are still under contract at Leeds this season.)

Brent Webb needs four points to become the 13th Leeds player to register 300 points for the club during the SL Era. Kevin Sinfield (the only forward in the top 15) obviously leads the points list with 2,622 - now within 300 of the mark set by Lewis Jones.

When Sir Kevin gets very close to breaking the record, say within 30, some kind of countdown banners would be good.

If we could Rachel Riley involved somehow, it'd be even better.

It would only take a few seconds for a man of tvoc's ability to just stick two lines at the bottom of the Opta thread every week.

Lewis Jones - 3300 (whatever it is!?)
Kevin Sinfield - 3200 (whatever he's on now?!)


Edit - just noticed you quote the Sinfield figure in the post above and say it's within 300!



Jones - 2,900 (ish?)
Sinfield - 2,622

Who is 'Mr Buderus impressive 9 tries' ?

On the other hand Mr Buderus' impressive 9 tries should be measured against his massive more impressive contributions in other areas.

Lewis Jones - 2,920
Kevin Sinfield - 2,638 (282 to equal, 283 to surpass)

The countdown is now well and truly on for what will be a pretty momentous achievement

It's about time Sir Kevin got am OBE for his Rugby League status. If he was playing that other code, he would have had one by now.

I am hoping rugby league will get a look in this year,and I am hoping for either Kevin or Jamie Peacock,but will Kevin accept such an award given his reputed political stance

With his first conversion at Castleford on Friday Sinfield passed 100 points for the 9th consecutive season. The two years previous to that run starting in 2003 he just missed out by recording 99 and 96 respectively.

12 years ago since we last won the cup.

is he within sight of Lewis Jones's goal kicking record this season?

Kevin Sinfield is closing in on a thousand (2 point) goals in the SL Regular Rounds. He currently stands on 991 after the 8 he kicked at Castleford on Friday.

__________



Lewis Jones kicked 1,244 goals during his Leeds career. I have no way of seperating that out into conversions/penalties - drop goals as all goals were counted as two points at that time.

Kevin Sinfield has kicked 1,174 + 26 drop goals for a comparable total of 1,200.

On that basis he will have every chance of knocking off the remaining 44 to equal the current record during the current season.

__________

During the SL Era Leeds players have reached their personal century on 30 occasions in total.

Player - Minimum 100 points (in consecutive seasons):

Kevin Sinfield - 9 (9)

Iestyn Harris - 5 (5)

Danny McGuire - 3 (1)

Rob Burrow - 2 (2)
Mark Calderwood 2 (1)
Ryan Hall - 2 (2)
Graham Holroyd - 2 (2)

Marcus Bai - 1
Francis Cummins - 1
Scott Donald - 1
Keith Senior - 1
Ben Walker 1

Of Ben Walkers 100+ points, how many were scored by kicking goals left footed?

A real statto's stat this one...

Jamie Jones-Buchanan's next Start will be his 150th in the SL Regular Rounds.
Lee Smith's next Start will be his 100th in the SL Regular Rounds.

Brent Webb's next Appearance will be his 100th in the SL Regular Rounds.

Kevin Sinfield needs 4 two point goals for 1,000 in the SL Regular Rounds. (Would be interesting to see the totals for Paul Deacon and Andrew Farrell to see where Sinfield is placed.)

Sinfield's goal total for Leeds stands at 1190 + 26 (DG) = 1216 chasing down the Leeds club record of 1244 currently held by Lewis Jones.

__________

I did have one waiting in the wings for Keith Senior as he reached 297 SL Regular Round Appearances for Leeds, could be a bit of a wait now to see if I'll need it.

With many thanks to =#800000A-Fire-Inside for the following:

Kevin Sinfield is on the verge (7 points) of passing Andrew Farrell and moving into 2nd place on the SL Regular Rounds + Play-Offs points list.

1 - Paul Deacon 2,395
2 - Andrew Farrell 2,376
3 - =#0000BFKevin Sinfield 2,370
4 - Sean Long 2,200
5 - Lee Briers 2,106
6 - Iestyn Harris 1,674
7 - Danny Tickle 1,631
8 - Pat Richards 1,463
9 - Henry Paul 1,238
10 - Danny Orr 1,167

__________

In addition Sinfield is also now within sight of becoming Leeds' all-time top marksman. Chasing down Lewis Jones goal-kicking record of 1,244 Sinfield is 17 away on 1,227 (including drop goals)

Passing the records held by Deacon and Jones in the same week is now a possibility.

Due to the differential points scoring of the respective Eras though Sinfield still requires 60 goal-kicking points to equal Jones' mark of 2,488 so that one remains on hold for now.

those records that Jones presently holds,are they just records for Leeds rugby league ?or are they for the whole of RL ?
