so tell us who would .
this is a statistics thread i think.

Correct.





No, I don't keep records for any players, either before or after they play for Leeds or those that never play for Leeds at all.

Only their efforts V Leeds are recorded.

Paul Deacon: Pl 33+7, Tries 3, Goals 99, Drop Goals 2, Points 212

The above includes last night.

Tvoc - what is our record against Bradford in SL now? I guess they are still a fair few wins up but we must have closed the gap significantly from the early years.

i think its time some talented person produced and published an updated headingley story 1979-2008 .
to keep the ken dalby legacy going

That information is classified and way too embarrasing for me to divulge. Some Bradford fans are having a stab at it over [url=http://viewtopic.php?t=352915&highlight=here[/url I fear it can only be a matter of time before the painful truth is revealed.



It's improving but still Leeds' major disappointment in terms of 50/50 parity. Ask me again if Leeds win the next 11 meetings.

But the stats on Saints look better I understand?

There's an up to date summary on the state of Leeds V St Helens on page 2 of this thread.

It's close.

And while I'm here wouldn't it be neat if McGuire scores a hat-trick at Harlequins on Sunday and creates a 3-way share for most tries with Cummins and Senior?

This is fun now:

Leeds' Top Try Scorers SL Era All Comps

1 = Danny McGuire 139
2 = Keith Senior 138
3 = Francis Cummins 136
4 = Rob Burrow 108
5 = Mark Calderwood 106

Leeds' Top Try Scorers SL Era Regular Rounds Only

1 = Keith Senior 123
2 = Danny McGuire 117
3 = Francis Cummins 111
4 = Rob Burrow 87
5 = Mark Calderwood 84

Carl Ablett's try V Wakefield brought up Leeds' 10,000 points for in the SL Regular Rounds.

The total came in Leeds' 334th game and is made up of 1,728 Tries, 1,527 Goals and 34 Drop Goals.

P.s don't forget sinfield equalled farrell's 48 consecutive super-league match scoring sequence

So they say.

I have no (independent) way of verifying what Farrell did or didn't do so it's not something I'd personally look to include here.

The last time Rob Burrow missed a kick at goal for Leeds was V Bradford, 7th July 2006. That game ended with his match winning conversion off the Southstand touchline into the empty building site.

2006 - 12
2007 - 5
2008 - 7

Not sure if it can turn into a 'genuine' attempt at the world record with him only filling in as a back up kicker but it's not too shabby.

By that logic, how about a round of applause for me?

I've not missed a kick at goal since 1981.

Wouldn't that depend on how many you'd successfully kicked since that miss in '81 though and at what level?

Ignore my request on the other thread.

One for all you Vulcan fans out there. With Danny McGuire's 2 drop goals to add to his 139 tries he has now amassed 558 points for Leeds. Nice touch. www.tvoc.co.uk

Bradford have now become the 3rd team to concede over a thousand points V Leeds during the SL Era.

London/Harlequins - 1,220
St Helens - 1,050
Bradford - 1,012

From the Leeds point of view it appears the order of preference to play Bradford is:

1 - At a neutral venue
2 - In Bradford
3 - At Headingley

The next time Leeds and Bradford meet it will be the 50th clash of the SL Era.

The Keith Senior try was Leeds' 100th of the season (18 games - All Comps)

The lowest total set by Leeds during the SL Era was 116 (26 games) in 1996 while the highest was 258 (36 games) in 2005

Kevin Sinfield has now kicked 700 Goals + 7 Drop Goals in the SL Regular Rounds while Rob Burrow needs 2 for his century of place kicks in the same.

TVOC you are a Stat's God!

Interesting one about our least favourite venue to play Bradford being at home!

I suspect that when the lads play at the Grotton they are just focussed on getting the job done as quickly as possible, so they can leave and get back to a proper stadium!

HOW do you know all this?

Do not question the power of the TVOC!

He is simply a genius!

DONT QUESTION HISTORIANS ,
VALUE THEM

How many would that have been with 4 points for a try?

Am I correct in thinking that we'd be unable to adjust it to 1 point for a drop goal as records never made a distinction between penalties, conversions and drop goals?

Lewis Jones scored 144 tries for Leeds currently placing him 10th on their all time list but now coming under pressure from McGuire and Senior.



Correct, prior to the reduction to 1 point for the 1974/5 season drop goals were just one of the three forms of goal and all were valued at 2 points obviously.

TVOC

Am I right in thinking that Kevin Sinfield moved equal second with Joe Thompson in the Leeds total points table with the drop goal against Wigan?

[url=http://boards.rlfans.com/viewtopic.php?t=357931Probably[/url

Last week Kevin Sinfield joined Joe Thompson on 1,883 points for Leeds, here is Sinfield's total broke down between comps:

SL Regular Rounds:
Played 214 + 24, 39 Tries, 700 Goals, 7 Drop Goals, 1563 Points

SL Play Offs:
Played 16 + 1, 2 Tries, 42 Goals, 4 Drop Goals, 96 Points

Challenge Cup:
Played 31 + 2, 14 Tries, 73 Goals, 4 Drop Goals, 206 Points

World Club Challenge:
Played 2 + 0, 0 Tries, 8 Goals, 2 Drop Goals, 18 Points

Total:
Played 263 + 27, 55 Tries, 823 Goals, 17 Drop Goals, 1883 Points



Rob Burrow needs 4 points for 700 for Leeds in all comps and
Keith Senior needs 4 points for 500 for Leeds in the SL Regular Rounds.

If Nick Scruton plays from the bench it'll be his 50th from there.

Awesome - simply awesome some of these stats - what did people do before data bases?

Some of these cricket bods would be impressed with these
