That is ridiculous.

Have any other players had a more decorated career? Perhaps some of the Wigan team in the 80's/90's, but not in the SL era?

Certainly up there, although Sinfield has alot of individual honours. I'm guessing Peacock has a couple of Challenge Cup winners medals?

The 2 players seem head and shoulders above others but in direct comparison Peacock has a better Challenge Cup and WCC record, more international caps, a greater GF record and has been named man of steel and captained his country.

Peacock also has his MBE from the New Year honours list.

Although I think they are 1 apiece on appearing on A Question of Sport...

Harold Wagstaff rlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Wagstaffrl captained arguably the greatest club side in history - Huddersfield's "Team of All the Talents" that won "All Four Cups" (Championship, Challenge Cup, Yorkshire League and Yorkshire Cup) in 1914-15. They were also Champions and Yorkshire League Champions in 1911–12, 1912–13, Cup Winners in 1912–13, and Yorkshire Cup winners in 1911-12 and 1913-14.

He also was one of, if not THE, greatest Test captains. He debuted at 17 against the first Kangaroos in 1908, and led us to Ashes victory in Australia in 1914 including probably the greatest test victory in history - the "Rorke's Drift Test" rlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rorke%27s_Drift_Test#Third_testrl

He served in Egypt during the Great War; toured again after the War, and retired in 1925.

History doesn't start in 1995!

Thanks for the info, and thanks for the condescending remark at the end.

I can assure you I certainly didn't mean to be condescending. We have a rich history to celebrate in our game and we just don't give enough regard to the greats that have graced our game since 1895.
Sky Sports especially seems to have a policy that Super League was Year Zero; even their show that looks to the past is called "Super League Hard Men".
Kevin Sinfield's achievements with Leeds do rank him among the greats of our game in my opinion;if only he had delivered more on the international stage!

He was 18th man in both games and played in the previous cup games. i believe the team get a number of additional medals that they can give to whoever they like. They tend to go to squad players and the coaching staff sometimes

In terms of actual honours Shaun Edwards' hat will be thrown into the ring sooner or later, taken from Wiki and the Wigan RL Website.
3 x WCC winner, 1 losing
8 x Championship winner
8 x Challenge Cup winner, 3 losing
3 x Regal trophy, 1 losing
5 x Lancashire Cup winner, 1 losing
3x Charity Shield winner, 4 losing
36 GB caps (incl 4 off the bench) 16 tries
Man of Steel Award 1990
Edwards played in an era that had far more domestic trophy's on offer than in the SL era so the number is somewhat slanted. However despite many of us taking the Wigan achievements from the mid 80s on with a pinch of salt given the vast differential in terms of buying power etc, Edwards achievements are of the highest order and credit to him cannot be taken away as the the Huddersfield 'Team of all talents' (a tag brazingly pinched from Sunderland FC's 1890 side) were sweeping all before them in a similar vein and would have carried on no doubt had it not been for WWI.
