Can I claim some kind of financial reward for this suggestion?  |

Great idea whoever's decided on, be nice if it went to a public vote though! Clive Sullivan would get mine.

That son, is a guy who lost his nerve when it counted and let all his team mates down and countless fans.
Why is there a statue of him?
Because the country likes to celebrate losers lad, and rugby league is small time, we had so many winners to choose from and we picked a guy who lost his bottle.'"
Terrible post, a lot of people will have empathy with that iconic image a Don Fox and sums up what Wembley means to people better than any other image. |

Better than the elation of being a champion?
I'm sure when people dream of playing at Wembley Stadium as a kid, they are dreaming of winning at the same time.
It's terrible because you don't agree, only this country would celebrate a loser |

How about Ernest Ward, he captained the great Northern team of the 40's who seemed to be at Wembley every year, if not him Ellery all the way!

I would think that rather than any single person , which will always bring argument from many no matter who is chosen , it should be something iconic to the sport .
It would be outside wembley so why not an oversized stone copy of the most iconic trophy in the rugby league world the Challenge Cup itself . Also as an after thought if you have a large enough plinth the names of every team who has won the trophy including pre-wembley winners with the years they won leaving space for more wins and other names to be added annually .
This way no club or player are made to appear more important than any other .

Good news for the sport but I'm sure there will be a few arguments along the line about who deserves to be on it. I'd just make it a combination of a few - Lance Todd, Ellery Hanley etc spring to mind

Success and failure are two sides of the same coin, nobody will ever always be successful and nobody will ever always fail and both are imposters on normal routine ,mundane life.
How good a life you will have depends on how happy you are during the mundane and routine.
But go ahead and be shallow and champion someone lifting the challenge cup which could be anyone from any year hardly iconic. |
