Took their time with Sully. Wasn’t he the skipper of the last British Ashes and World Cup winning squads? That alone deserves the honour, oh and the only player to win the Challenge Cup with both Hull teams.

Yes, I was surprised that he wasn't already in the Hall of Fame. Looking at the list Shaun Edwards and Andy Gregory are already in there.

Andy Farrell and Adrian Moreley in the company of Sully and Watkins. The mind boggles. I read David Watkins biography a while ago, after he’d joined Salford, he attended an WRFU game at Cardiff Arms Park and was told when he tried to gain entrance by the ex players entrance, “ You’ve got to pay” fecking tossers.
I hate RFU with a passion. Apartheid was supposed to only happen in South Africa and southern states of the USA
