Not sure about that.
My dad was a Quins RU fan and a Fulham FC fan. He was also an ardent RL fan since the begining of Fulham RL. Before his death I remember him saying that Quins RU and Wasps RU would not take Offiah. They viewed him at Rosslyn Park RU (which was only around the corner from where we lived on Upper Richmond Road) and thought he was lazy. However, I suppose he proved them wrong in the long run. But I don't think he was universally admired (?). RU did not think he worked for the Team???
After getting home from the Wigan game on Sunday I watched the Sky broadcast and thought his comments, in part, were anti Quins RL. Maybe he is biased towards Wigan (or still smarting that he was never taken up by Quins).
Who knows!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
