LIVING LEGEND

Well done Sir Kevin Sinfield, the greatest points scorer and most successful captain in the history of Leeds Rugby League!

(I know this has already been raised in the milestones thread but if ever an achievement deserved its own thread this was it)

Love it!

Oh and a special well done to Kev for braking the record in style with a slightly uncharacteristic try scoring performance

Since the record has gone and speaking hypothetically, had the record have gone at home, many other sports would have had a pitch invasion (I don't mean the sort of thing that Hull FC do) but something like a fairly orderly leaving of the stands to celebrate it and the stewards only making a token effort to keep the fans back.

Wasn't there something like this when Boycott got his 100th first class hundred in the Headingley Test circa 1977 ?

Well done to Sir Kev ,latest in a long line of prolific points scorers for Leeds ! My memory tells me how he & his predecessors ,notably Lewis Jones & Bev Risman , have kicked the Mighty Wire & most other teams to death over the years. Well done Kev !!

"I did not know how many points Lewis Jones had got when I started kicking, but it is more pleasing the way we played than beating the record. "I have played in some amazing teams and have been lucky that most of the tries have been under the posts."

This man's humility is second to none. what a pro.
