and no doubt significantly cheaper

I dont mind Delaney personally. As said above he's solid.



TBF its always hard in modern times to be a centre at Leeds because we have had Keith Senior on the opposie side for 11 years. Thats a hell of a lot to live up to because he's still probably the best centre in the Super League.

Whilst i agree with some posters that Clarkson has earned his spot, i strongly doubt if all other players are fit, which is how it is looking that young Chris will get a shirt at all. 18th man - great experience.



Webb

Donald

Delaney

Senior

Hall

McGuire

Burrow

Leuluai

Buderus

Peacock

Ablett

JJB

Sinfield



Ali

Eastwood

Bailey

Diskin



All prior knowledge aside, in terms of winning the game, you have to pick your strongest squad. To me that includes Ali and Eastwood regardless of fitness or future commitment, they are both simply too good to leave out.



Clarkson will get another chance, just like Sinfield, just like McGuire.

fatty fat fatty can sod off.



Clarkson over eastwood.

You ruined your quite astute opinions by leaving out Smith for Diskin. There is no way Smith can be left out of the 17 !!!! (IMO) Diskin on the other hand can be (IMO).



Please please consider switching wingers again so that Donald gets some quality ball from Senior on the left in the space he needs. Hall can continue to run over his opposition with or without Senior on the right wing.

twas not an error. It was a judgement call.



Smith got the vote this week and played well, I expect Donald to get the nod and enjoy the wide open spaces and tired legs at wembley.



Diskin if fit is a certainty and rightly should be.



However there are two games to go first and the decision may be made for bluey.

I've just dug my 1985 CC final programme with such illustrious autographs I collected that day as Clive Sullivan,Bernard Cribbins,Collin Wellend and even Neil Kinnock!!!



But not one of those Superstars could surpass my most cherished signature on that front cover.



That of former Leeds RLFC kitman Harvey Standeven!!

Except Harvey Stendeven was no kit man, he was the highly regarded and respected cigar smoking physio.



The Leeds kit-man in Harvey's day was ex Leeds second-row Alan Horsfall.

Ian Kirke..... who everyone seems to have overlooked!

Chris Clarkson to play...because he built our new conservatory last year and it would make his dad Peter very proud I would imagine.

and a honkey tonk piano player as well.









and the U19`s Intermediates coach as well

Thank the lord.
