Thanks to the hypocrasy of the Rugby Union code who for a hundred years comdemmed the paying of players until Sky Television daggled a big fat carrot in front of them in returned for a contract far in excess of any that has been offered to Rugby League, two of the greatest players ever to wear the Cherry and White of the Wigan club along with others like Joe Lydon, Mick Ford etc and the son of Farrell, who was at school age destained to play for Wigan and be a future Rugby League International deserted Wigan for the infamous thirty pieces of silver.

Thank goodness, most rugby players brought up in the rugby towns of the North of England like Kris Radlinski etc have not only remained loyal to the Rugby League code, but continued to spread the code to other parts of the country including bastions of Union.

p.s. And unlike Rugby Union players, never invited to participate in any television programmes other than 'A Question of Sport' on odd occasions.
