no idea why that thought has come into my head.....perhaps im confusing him with someone else *shrug*
I seem to remember him being named on the wing for the grand final eliminator in 2003, at home V Wigan, but that's not really at the start of his career.

He played once or twice on the wing in 2003. One at home to Wigan, where Dunemann made a break, and kicked to the corner for McGuire to win the race and scoop the ball up brilliantly (Infront of the North Stand, at what now is the Carnegie Stand End. Sinfield missed the kick and the game was drawn.
Blatant crossing on Dunners' break as well, as my SL tries DVD informs me.
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.

Of those 11 appearances over 2001 - 2002 all bar one were from the bench. The exception was his full debut away at Widnes playing stand off (Matt23 mentioned above) where Leeds' Internationals (Senior, Sheridan and Sinfield) were started on the bench.

You may be spot on LP but for some reason i thought it was mathers on the wing mcguire at fullback!
The reason being i specifically remember mathers taking a bomb on the full out wide and flicking a wonder pass back before he hit the deck to adamson i think!

You're both right and it remains a real bug bear for my records.
Officially Mathers was named at full-back with McGuire on the right wing in place of Calderwood after his hapless show at Odsal the week before.
In reality though, Mathers started on the wing with McGuire at full-back. No question about it and confirmed the following night in the YEP match report.
As my records are purely unofficial I've always gone with how they lined up at kick-off, but that's just me.
Either way it's the only time McGuire has started a game in a position other than in the halves.

And is very consistent,i think true Leeds fans appreciate a good player and most on here are blinkered.
AT LAST a poster who talks some sense !! You know your stuff 07. As for "true Leeds fans" Well there are not many of those about matey - just people that like to moan & put down players.
Danny Mags should move to the Bulls where him & Deacon would rule the 2009 Superleague !!
