IIRC Prior to the Bulls game JP had played 207 for the Bulls & 205 for us.
So he's now played more games for us than he did for the Bulls.
Waits with bated breath for tvoc to prove me wrong.

150 appearances in Super League games only (regular season and play-offs combined total)...



JP did indeed play 207 games for Bradford, but I reckon yesterday was only his 207th for Leeds.

Do you agree on that figure tvoc?

How many carries?

He must be up around the 600 mark

thought that may be asked

Agreed.

Kirke's Leeds figures in All Comps reads:

Played 56 + 117 (+1 DNP), Tries 10, Points 40



I have last Sunday's appearance V Warrington as Peacock's 207th with Leeds, as I think we've discussed previously (probably via PM) If there is a discrepancy with the Leeds handbook total as referenced by gulfcoast_highwayman up to the end of 2012 I'm guessing it surrounds his non playing sub 'appearance' V Workington in the Challenge Cup tie at Headingley - 30th March 2007.

Extract from the YEP match report :

[iThe Super League side were able to give some of their fringe men and regular substitutes plenty of game time, try a few different combinations =#0000FFand had the luxury of leaving Great Britain skipper Jamie Peacock on the substitutes' bench throughout. Perhaps that was an opportunity missed to give some experience to one of their Academy prospects – front-rower Luke Burgess for example – but Rhinos coach Tony Smith showed respect to both the competition and the opposition by fielding a strong line-up. [/i

Kevin Sinfield is still on the move up the All-Time points table having ended Leeds' 2012 campaign in 10th - started the current season in 9th he's just surpassed Kel Coslett and moved into 6th - and can realistically expect to be 5th before the season end, injuries permitting.

__________

Back at Leeds Sinfield requires 3 more two point goals to reach 1,500 for the club.

Danny McGuire's second try V Castleford took him level with his former half-back partner Rob Burrow as they now both share third spot on Leeds' SL Era points table in All Comps:

1 - Kevin Sinfield 3,331 pts
2 - Iestyn Harris 1,455 pts
=3 - Rob Burrow 915 pts
=3 - Danny McGuire 915 pts
5 - Keith Senior 684 pts

It will be interesting watching in the next 3 seasons who claims 3rd or even 2nd spot Maggs or Rob?

No chance on either of them surpassing Harris, they'd need over another 120 tries each. The race to reach the 1,000 mark first is on though, should take 22 tries (providing no goals are scored).....and think both will but i'll tip McGuire to get their first.

I realised that after I posted

Kevin Sinfield's next appearance will be his 450th for Leeds in All Comps.
_____

Kylie Leuluai's next appearance will be his 200th for Leeds in All Comps and he'll join his fellow antipodean Ali Lauitiiti in equal 11th as they share top overseas billing.

1 - Kevin Sinfield 449
2 - Rob Burrow 371
3 - Keith Senior 365
4 - Danny McGuire 309
5 - Jamie Jones-Buchanan 295
6 - Ryan Bailey 281
=7 - Francis Cummins 268
=7 - Barrie McDermott 268
9 - Matt Diskin 264
10- Jamie Peacock 210
11 - Ali Lauitiiti 200
12 - Kylie Leuluai 199

Leuluai will then be tracking down the Kiwi with the (all time) most Leeds appearances to his name - Bert Cook on 210.
_____

Rob Burrow with his next league outing will draw level with Keith Senior in 2nd spot behind Sinfield in terms of SL Regular Round appearances with Leeds.

1 - Kevin Sinfield 359
2 - Keith Senior 297
3 - Rob Burrow 296

Ryan Hall needs one try to register 150 for the Headingley club in All Comps.

Leeds SL Era - Top Ten Try-Scorers:

(are there any top ten lists at Leeds covering the SL Era which Sinfield isn't on)

Players seem to be playing longer these days.I wonder who was the oldest player to take the field for Leeds?John Holmes,Jim Brough,Fred Webster?

Quick question.

In this year's handbook there is a list of those who have captained Leeds in major finals (which they count as CC, WCC, GF or CH, JPS, YC, PR and Floodlit). The list is however incomplete, as far as I can tell, as it doesn't include the captains of our 1987/88 JPS team or the 1988 YC. My best guess is Tunks for the first and Crooks for the latter. Am I right?

I think you are correct

I agree with you and lionarmour87. Lee Crooks was definitely the Leeds captain at Elland Road when they picked up the Yorkshire Cup - despite one photo caption I recall at the time claiming 'Leeds skipper Garth Crooks.' I'm almost equally certain that Peter Tunks was installed as captain after his delayed arrival in '87 although I also recall Leeds handing the armband to Lee Crooks for Tunks' debut as Leeds faced Hull at Headingley in the opening round of the YC just a few months after his reluctant arrival at LS6 from the Boulevard.

__________



I don't have such records but I imagine they would all feature somewhere close to the summit, probably with Gentleman Jim Brough sat at the top.

Another name I'd throw in from my own era would be Alan Smith who I think played his final game as a 39 year old - as a try-scorer on a wet Headingley afternoon V Widnes when he embarrassed one of the Myler clan watching the ball in the in-goal area as Smith pounced cat-like to score. A game I also remember for the inclusion of a few teenage prospects alongside the twenty-one season veteran - Leeds' only other try-scorer in the 10-5 win Mark Campbell and Des Armitage.

I was wondering how old the Jeffasaurus (Jeff Grayshon) might have been in his brief Leeds career but it turns out he was a mere 37 in his final game for the club - so alongside John Holmes in that regard.

Crooks went off with a dislocated shoulder in the SF IIRC - don't think he played in the final.
I have feeling it was tunks.

I'd forgotten that. He was distraught as it was his drinking arm.

I think i still have them two games (and the SF) on video. Must see if i can convert to DVD. If i get a chance i may look back at them to remember the years when we pined for any trophy.

Before Friday, in terms of the SL Regular Rounds, there were three teams who had a better win to loss ratio when facing Leeds - now there are two (St Helens and Wigan) as the Leeds win at Odsal finally drew them level with their local rivals in this one aspect and did so for the first time during the SL Era.

What are the St Helens' figures, TVOC? And how do they change if you add Grand Finals into the calculation?

With thanks to =#0000FFA-Fire-Inside we have the following : (As referenced incorrectly by Eddie Hemmings at the Bradford game.)

=#0000FFDanny McGuire needs three tries to reach 250 for his career.

McGuire has touched down 229 times for Leeds since 2001, and has also scored representative tries for Great Britain (5 Test & 2 Non-Test, 2004 & 2006-2007), England (4, 2008-2009), England 'A' (2, 2002-2003) and England Under-21s (5, 2001).

As well as tries scored, McGuire has kicked one goal for Great Britain (2006 Tri-Nations, against New Zealand) and three field goals for Leeds, leaving him needing seven points for a career total of 1,000.

Ryan Hall Needs 1 try for 150 for Leeds in All Comps while Kallum Watkins needs 1 for 50.

17 - Willie Poching 51
18 - Andy Hay 50
19 - Kallum Watkins 49

Each of our players from one to seven (positionally) scored a try yesterday. When did that last happen?

From a comment made on SKY - it appears the last (and possibly only previous) time it has happened in SL was the 8th August 1999 when Wigan defeated Huddersfield at the McAlpine Stadium 60 points to 10.

Wigan's backs lined up :

Kris Radlinski
Jason Robinson, Gary Connolly, Danny Moore, Paul Johnson
Greg Florimo, Tony Smith

All the above scored a try each bar Smith who bagged a brace.
(Gavin Clinch came off the bench and also scored a try.)

A one-on-one ball steal under the sticks no doubt.
