Great player, including internationally, and local icon as he no doubt is, Sullivan's Wembley links are perhaps not quite significant enough to make it a complete surprise. Thought he might make the shortlist in fairness.

And here in lay the reason.
Offiah, IMO. For his try against Leeds in 94 or 95

If we are talking about Wembley links ,what about Roger playing most of cup final with a broken jaw then? Surely this is more iconic than all of those listed.

To Rovers fans, certainly - but in the wider RL community, much less so. Very hard to find something that will please all or even most.
A group covering several eras and clubs might be best.
