Leeds prop forward Jamie Peacock has been included in the 2014 Super League Dream Team for a record-extending 10th time.

The 36-year-old former England captain earned a place in the mythical line-up five times in six years during his spell with Bradford from 2000-05 and, following his move to Leeds, was included for three consecutive years up to 2009.

Peacock, one of five Leeds players unveiled at St Helens on Monday afternoon, was recalled after a spectacular return to form in 2013 and has kept his place this year.

He is one of only three survivors from the 2013 team, the others being Wigan duo Matty Smith and Sean O'Loughlin.

The team, which is selected by a panel of broadcasters and journalists in a secret ballot, is drawn from seven clubs and comprises all England-born players for the second consecutive year.

Loose forward O'Loughlin makes his fifth appearance in a row, while Widnes stand-off Kevin Brown becomes the Vikings' first-ever representative and he is also one of eight debutants in the team.

Leeds winger Ryan Hall is included for his fourth appearance since 2009, and joins team-mates Carl Ablett, Kallum Watkins, Zak Hardaker and Peacock in the team to make the Rhinos the most-represented club.

Castleford's fine season has been recognised with both captain Michael Shenton and Daryl Clarke making their Dream Team debuts.
