I would agree with the suggestion of Eric Ashton. I think he is the only man to "win" the Challenge Cup as player-captain, coach and chairman. Also, he is widely respected and free from controversy.



Less free from controversy but undoubtedly widely respected would be Alex Murphy who has captained 3 different teams to Challenge Cup success.

Clive Sullivan the last man to Captain us to the World Cup and the first Black man to Captain any British National team IIRC

the man born in wales has RL written all over him



"Clive Sullivan was born on the 9th April 1943 in Splott, Cardiff. He started playing rugby after being introduced to the game at school and won selection for Cardiff schools once, but any further progress was halted by a leg injury at the age of 14. Doctors told him he may never walk properly, let alone play active sport again"

Sullivan is a great shout.

I don't think he ever played at Wembley though.

Sullivan is a good shout and I dont think anyone could object too strongly to him. Obviously being slightly biased here, but how about John Holmes?

Jim Sullivan.



World record goal kicker.



1st Rugby league player to captain a winning team at Wembley.

Good shout.

How about a statue of Lance Todd with the LT Trophy winners engraved on it.

I'd go for this. It has to be something memorable and lifting the first cup at Wembley is about as memorable as it gets. Edwards never won a Lance Todd so giving him a statue would be like giving Phil Neal a statue outside Anfield. If they don't go for Sullivan then I think you have to do what the Australians have done with the NRL trophy and go for a memorable image e.g. Henderson Gill's smile, Fox's collapse after the kick, Murphy kicking a drop goal, Len Killeen setting up to kick etc.



They could even go for a huge statue of the Challenge Cup itself seeing how beautiful a trophy it is.

Leroy Rivett



He could be in his ripped jeans and vest combo that he wore in the LT line up the other year.
