| Yep. And that list has the pack around the other way so I think that Case, Groves and Crooks must have been the front row.

In that case, I think it's Henderson Gill, Mike Ford, Lee Crooks and Garry Schofield in Photo 2.
Paul Medley, Paul Groves and Roy Powell in Photo 3.

| That seems to be right.
I will post a few more from this game and maybe others once I scan some more of these old negatives.

| Quote gulfcoast_highwayman="gulfcoast_highwayman"Plus, Mal Reilly (GB coach, and Leeds coach for a bit) did not like him at all.'"
Mal Reilly hated shirkers, showboaters and bottlers and he categorised Medley as all three. I think he had a valid point on all of three accusations. Turned on Medley after the 30-0 loss to Manly on that 1988 GB tour.
Medley's days were numbered at Leeds as soon as Reilly became coach of Leeds by turfing him off to Halifax in exchange for Paul Dixon. Smart deal IMO, even if it did annoy thicko Loiners fans at the time.

My old man reckons it might be hooker Tommy Harris (Hull FC and GB legend) but he's not 100% sure.

| Harris was definitely part of that touring side. But I don't know whether he played in that game. But at least that's a start.

| Quote craigizzard="craigizzard"Tour game. Old Australian numbering. 9 = second-row?'"
I would think that is the explanation. The Aussie's Clubs used to number backwards with No.8 being lock (loose forward), 9 & 10 second row, 11, 12, 13 being the front row. I think that the hooker wore no.13 instead of 12 as well, but can't be sure. This only applied when the played clubs sides, as the international sides used to wear the same number system as us, even though the Aussie media would often list the side using the club system.

Your old man would be correct.

I think your dad is right. I know my memory isn't what it was but I was a regular at the Boulevard in the 50's and 60's when Hull had the most fearsome pack I've ever seen, and I'm pretty sure this is Bomber Harris.
