| Don Fox is the iconic rugby league moment at Wembley, just as Bobby Moore lifting the cup is the iconic football moment
Honorable mentions to Offiah, and for me this one always springs to mind

| Why is Clive Sullivan synonymous with Wembley?
Yes, a legend of RL, but not particularly of RL at Wembley.
This statue is to commemorate "Rugby League’s historic role in the rich and colourful story of Wembley". Not a great RL player for being a great RL player.

| Genuine question: how much did Clive Sullivan play at Wembley?
If not him, then rather than Edwards I would suggest Hanley. Given this is of importance outside Wigan I think the individual needs to have performed creditably at the stadium for GB as well as just for club. Ellery was captain I think in the 1990 test match and coach in 1994. Edwards' GB record at Wembley is somewhat less impressive.

| If you say Edwards then you have to consider Sean Long - THREE Lance Todd trophies cannot be ignored...
Robbie Paul and the first Wembley Hat Trick
Ellery Hanley, player, captain and coach thats won at Wembley is the other option
But to me it has to be a player that has the same achievements as Sir Bobby Moor - world cup winning captain, and we only have one of those...

| It's a tremendously difficult choice and one which will divide opinion no matter who is picked.
The offiah kneeling down is a brilliantly iconic image.

imagine having a statue of sean long at wembley
he would probably get a picture of it tattooed on his face after a jagerbomb session.

| Actually after actually really thinking about this i'm going to go for Mal Reilly, winner of the Lance Todd, played and coached GB, won a world cup, did well in Oz. Mal deserves a statue and he's well known on both sides of the world.

This, by a country mile. Plaque underneath simply reads 'Poor lad!'
