A man born to be captain (think about it), Ian Kirke towers over the opposition from his 6ft 5in height but is the kind of guy who lets his rugby do the talking. After spells in both halves of Hull and Dewsbury, Kirke's breakthrough came at York City Knights as he quietly set about laying the foundations for their National League Two triumph. Tony Rea took him on loan to London Broncos and the Rhinos acted on the hint and snapped him up shortly afterwards.
