| Given that Wembley became associated with Wigan's glory run in the 1980s and 1990s, due to the 8 in a row, I think it would be appropriate to have one of the Wigan players from that era made into a statue, so Ellery Hanley or Shaun Edwards for me.

Eleven Challenge Cup finals, nine times winner.
Edwards has to be favourite. It's the bloody RLs fault he is no longer involved with RL, not Shauns.

Exactly why is it the RFL's fault that Edwards is no longer involved in the sport?
Did they impose a ban?
The truth is, he - like a multitude of others with Wigan connections - turned his back on the sport to take up ranks with the enemy.
I, and I suspect many other RL fans, would be absolutely outraged if this once-in-a-generation honour was bestowed on him, no matter how good a player he was.
He shouldn't even be considered.

| Shaun Edwards, regardless of his union connections. His efforts in 1990 deserve the honour alone.

This is quite a question ,some may go for the player who has won it the most times, who happens to be Shaun Long. But in my opinion he carries to much baggage. (my opinion).
Another choice would be Shaun Edwards,most decorated player in the history of the game.
My opinion of Shaun was he was a bit of a machine,allways took the right option but did he exite me like some players not always.
The best for me was Andy Gregory,he would always going to explode when people did not expect it,a truly exiting player.
I will always remember talking to Dave Heron (Leeds Loose Forward) a couple of days before they played Wigan at Central Park in the Cup ( app 1990 ?). His comments went something like this,"Edwards is a good player but the player we fear the most is Andy Gregory".
The only reason I knew Dave Heron is because he was a rep in engineering who used to visit the firm I worked for in the Wigan area.

Long didn't win any of his Lance Todd trophies at Wembley so we can easily discount him, given the statue is to commemorate RL's Wembley history.
