It won't be Long. None of his Lance Todd awards were at Wembley were they?

I just think it will be wrong if it is a player with a particular affilliation to a particular club. I wouldn't want to be represented by a Wigan player in a classic Wigan pose, like the Offiah or Hanley ones suggested on the VT and I'm sure they would feel the same about a Paul Sculthorpe or Sean Long statue being put up. Nor do I want it to be a Union player like Davies, Edwards or Farrell.

Eddie Waring or Ray French!



(That should avoid any tribalism)

Ellery Hanley for me

Just imagine the screaming from over the lump if it was though



I agree on avoiding players with a strong Union link.

Vince Karalius for me, epitome of a tough rugby player with an international pedigree.

Alex Murphy? Another League Great with an international pedigree

That's who I would go for.

Stevo

On that note I'd vote for Bill Ashurst, did what we all dream of doing.

As distasteful as it is to say - it would probably be Shaun Edwards.

Perhaps we should vote for Don Fox

I'd rather they put up a statue of Mussolini, Gaddafi, Hitler, Stalin, Che , Tony Blair, Will Carling, Rob Andrew or even John Inverdale than Shaun Edwards

He was a good player in a great team playing against amateurs/part timers.

Not my cup of tea at all.
