i had thought about Keith Senior, but used to detest him as a Leeds player so just couldnt do it
its good that we have some poetic licence too with Morley and Peacock with prop and SR as i had to jiggle them about when i realised i had missed off James Graham

Not sure why some of those are classed as "underrated" Not by me!
I've interpreted "favourite" as players I liked - entertainers or characters as well as good players, but not necessarily the best in their position:
1. Hampo
2. King Billy
3. Dean Bell
4. Tuigamala
5. Henderson Gill
6. Bill Francis
7. Frankie Parr
8. Neil Cowie
9. Nicky Kiss*
10. Kelvin Skerrett
11. Ian Potter**
12. Bill Ashurst
13. Ellery
* Bring back ball-stealing.
**Every team needs a grafter, and my lad played 2nd row in under-11s and I got him to watch and copy Potter. Also worth including for his pass to Fergie, Wembley 85.
