I know that sinfield burrow and McGuire all need to be included in here, but sinfield played only a handful of games at 13 after 2010.

Generally it was sinfield 6, Danny 7 and burrow off the bench

Hard to beat but hardly a team of this decade, given the likes of Ali, Keith & Webb played for us mainly in the previous one. As for Donald, I've a feeling he may have retired in around 2009/10? And Buderus was a departee too.

Re: Team of the decade. : Wed Jan 01, 2020 5:45 pm  

My personal team of the decade would be

1.Hardaker
2.T.Briscoe
3.Watkins
4.Moon
5.Hall
6.Sinfield
7.Mcguire
8.Leuluai
9.Burrow
10.Peacock
11.JJB
12.Ablett
13.Delaney

Subs

14.Buderus
15.Ward
16.Bailey
17.Cuthbertson

Donald left us after 2010 so can't really class him as playing much in our success this decade although he's been in our top 5 wingers since start of super league imo.

Webb was a world class fullback for us but had more success in previous decade and Hardaker was a stand out for us when he broke into our squad this decade.

lauitiiti again had succes in previous decade for us, and the same with Senior

Think im only Leeds fan who thought Buderus, who is one of the greatest 9s of all time, was disappointing for Leeds.

Re: Team of the decade. : Wed Jan 01, 2020 6:15 pm  

I think you probably are

Re: Team of the decade. : Wed Jan 01, 2020 7:14 pm  

What would people say was Buderus' best game for Leeds?

Re: Team of the decade. : Wed Jan 01, 2020 7:29 pm  

The CC semi final against Saints IMO

Re: Team of the decade. : Wed Jan 01, 2020 8:38 pm  

Agree game at Huddersfield v saints interchanged with disco Leeds went backwards when Betsy went of and as soon as he came back on he single handedly changed the game.
Best display by a hooker I’ve ever seen.

Wow thats a big statement. Think your going over the top to be honest.

His best game for me as at Wigan when he was totally running the show but broke his leg. Dont think we ever saw those highs from him again. As i say one of the best 9s ever....but not for Leeds. He wasnt bad by any means but the way people talk about him always seems way over what i saw. All opinions though.
