| Edwards should be discounted on account of being sent off at Wembley for GB against the Aussies in 1994, in my mind (was that the same one when Jiffy scored in the corner?). As you may have worked out, 1994ish was around about the time I started to take more interest in RL (had been going to Leigh games on-and-off for two years prior to that)

I'm starting to agree with you!

As I've said personally I would have Shaun Edwards, but he was only a support player  wasn't he.
Sarcasm apart the jealousy against him is unreal and unfounded.
I picked Eric Ashton as a "safe" choice and would be delighted if it were him.
However, if every true RL fan put aside their club prejudices, it would be Shaun Edwards.
11 Wembley Challenge Cup Final Appearances with 9 wins will never be surpassed.

He is union though
And he was just a support player, he couldn't create, pass, kick, organise, lead the team or anything.  he was just in the right place at the right time, sort of a glorified Ricky Bibey.

| I would contend that the most iconic photographic image related to Wigan RL and indeed Wembley is the shot of an airborne, try bound Trevor Lake in the 1965 final, considered by many to be the greatest Cup final.
That would do for me

| Shaun Edwards and Alex Murphy. Both have great Wembley records and both are world renowned legends.
