| Quote Remarkable_Rhinos="Remarkable_Rhinos"Are we talking "like" as in as a player? Or like as in, attitude, demeanor, and our general perception of them as people?'"
I've never met any of them "as people" so my lone concern is for their on-field activity.
If I found out Sam Tomkins was guilty of murder, rape or purchasing Hearsay records I'd change my mind. Until then he's just a rugby player. He's quite a good one too.
I'll allow spent convictions to go by. I can't be bothered disliking people for fighting with other big daft lads, provided it was a fair fight and both parties were up for it (not that I condone it as such, just that it doesn't seem like my business once the courts have dealt with it) or for making silly choices involving drugs.

| I'd hate Leon Pryce to sign for us.
It would be like when we signed Paul Harkin. I remember day well. I went out for my dinner break at work and bought the YEP. As always, turned straight to the back page, and had to stop myself shouting obscenities in the street. Little git.
Andy Gregory's signing also upset me me more than a little.

| Tomkins is the only one that comes to mind. I haven't disliked a player so much since Edwards.

I started liking Edwards after his strop at Odsal in 1998. I can't remember who didn't pass to him when he would have been clean through against us, but the reaction was brilliant.

| I like Edwards now he doesn't play for Wigan, and let's be honest again, most people who weren't Wigan fans hated him, but 99% of them would have fookin loved him if he'd played for them. He was a dirty get, but he was a win-at-all-costs sort of player, and he did plenty of hard work to make sure he did a lot of winning.
The guy is a born winner, and I'd love to see him back in RL as a coach.

| Barrie McDermott was a thug who picked on kids. Also the best prop of his generation. I don't recall many Leeds fans booing him.

One of the dirtiest players of his generation.
Loved him.
See above comments on Shaun Edwards.

Martin Offiah was a once-a-generation talent. Even when he played for Wigan I couldn't help getting some sense of enjoyment from watching him play.
I once got his autograph after a game, Edwards was there and got his pen ready and I just ignored him.
Kids are tw*ts sometimes.
Sorry Shaun!
Bet he cried for days.

| Silly argument. Wonder how many would want Bailey if not already a Leeds player.
Sam Tomkins, Lee Brierley, Ben Westwood ... Would have them all if they enhance the team's chances of winning.

Was it? I always had Graeme Bradley down as the offender, could be wrong.
