Wish I could have made it. I'm so lucky to have seen him in the Trinity shirt. Will never forget the Halifax game.

What an evening. Brilliant to hear stories from a true legend of the game. Brought back memories of watching him play for Trinity. Topped off with a photograph together.

Gutted I couldn't attend. I hope all of you that made it had great nights meeting The King, reminiscing about his time at Trinity plus all the other great things he achieved. RL's equivalent of meeting Muhammad Ali imo.

Had the pleasure of meeting Wally Lewis in Brian Briggs Pub. What an absolute legend he turned out to be in the world of rugby league.

Bit of a shame for me. Lewis played for Trinity at the only time in my life I had no interest in RL. It would be another four years before I even new he'd played for us.

I've seen footage and he looked as good as they say but that's not the same as seeing him in the RWB.

All teams have seen great players before and since. Not many though were undisputed as the greatest player in the world. Quite an achievement for a club that was already in decline.

There can be little doubt the money could have been better spent but in Rock n Roll terms what a way to go!

Nice interview in Yorkshire post sport today. How has a team we could have learned so much from him on training techniques and dedication instead of working against him. Incredible passing ability What a legioned.

A true great, I'm looking forward to Monday night and seeing him again. Mind you he's been "coming " for over thirty years.

Like Pop Tart I met my Rugby League hero last night. Top bloke , he had time for everybody and was still there signing autographs and chatting to fans going on for midnight. His love for the club and fans was absolutely genuine.

Good also to see the likes of Colin Maskill, Nigel Stephenson, Nigel Bell and Mike Lampkowski along with other ex players at the event.

Tbh I'm similar in the fact I never got to see him play even though I was living about a mile away. The reason though was a little different, as a kid I just wasn't that into watching the game. I'd been with my dad on a number of occasions and he went to see him lay everytime just about. But all my Autumn/winter time was filled up playing RL/RU and Swimming
