IF Farrell did convert to RL he would be the biggest name to come to RL in the history of the game exceeding even the signatures of Jim Sullivan and Billy Boston.
A player known nationally to the very majority of sports fans in the UK.
A name that would generate more interest than any other ex RU player or even the current greatest NRL players.
A player that would attract national sponsors.
A player that would fill the ground on his RL debut.
A player that would take the atmosphere of a Wigan v Saints derby to a different stratosphere.
A player that would become part of the Wigan folklore if he was successful. A story that today’s kids will tell their grandkids about if he was successful.
A player that all RL fans outside of Wigan would want him to fail and pay money to see it.
A player that would attract national headlines.
A player that would be coming home.
A player that the NRL press would detest but would love him to actually play in Australia on a Lions tour.
A player that the English RU press detest but can’t stop writing about him even if he played RL.
A player that if he failed would become part of Saints folklore.
A player that might trigger a surge in kids taking up RL all across the country.
A player that would create history if he could follow his dad’s success.
A player if he did succeed might encourage more RU players to convert to RL across all levels of rugby.
A player that could takes us on the trip of a lifetime or to the depths of despair.
A player who could be an actual game changer.
You never know he might actually be a decent RL player too.
