By the looks of it, it has come from the Hull local press rather than an official statement by Wembley or whoever it is deciding only releasing one name prematurely. |

No Jim Sullivan! Why they've put Lance Todd in there from the first winning team at Wembley when he's already commemorated through the Lance Todd Trophy at the stadium and left out Sullivan who captained and then coached numerous teams to victories as well as breaking scoring records is typical RFL. |

Jim Sullivan ,if not him then Hanley who is still the most recognised name for people who are not involved with the game |

The statue should definitely not be of either Shaun Edwards or Jonathan Davies. If it was to be either of them most people (and the media) would end up calling it and thus thinking of it as an RU statue.
Other than that I really don't care who is chosen.

We should all vote for the same Wiganer so at least one of them gets it!

Hopefully one of the former Wigan players will be chosen.
My vote goes to Ellery.'"
IMO ellery Hanley should be the one. He's a true legend of the sport and has worldwide respect.
He's got a link with Wembley having played there many times with Wigan, GB and if I recall correctly coached GB to a win over the Aussies at Wembley. |

I too am surprised Jim Sullivans name isn't in there, why the eck is Jonathon Davies' name in it? I wouldn't vote for Shaun Edwards as much as i loved him when he played for us he is really a Rugby Union man now, my vote would be Ellery Hanley. |

I can just picture the ellery Hanley statue. He should have that British coal GB shirt with his stuck up at the front hairstyle.
It would look class! |

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

Lance Todd has the MOM named after him
IMO I would have Edwards but his Union connections slightly blemishes his record

I don't think Edwards deserves it. It's got to be Hanley for me. |

Lose your wigan bias lads. Sullivan was the first black englishman to captain GB and is spoken of massively by both sides of the Hull divide after playing for both which is no mean feat.
