"Owen Farrell 'the best rugby league player of last 10 years'. He'd be even better than his dad, according to Sam Tomkins, the England Rugby League captain".

"Owen Farrell has been hailed as the “the best rugby league player of the last 10 years” despite not playing a game in the 13-a-side code."


So the England Rugby League captain reckons the best League player of the last 10 years is a Rugby Union player who's never played Rugby League. I wouldn't be knowing, but who am I to argue with Sam anyway, it does beg the question though, just what sort of a tin-pot game is Rugby League when it's best player is a Union player who doesn't even play League ?

I only ask.
