Britain's All-time Rugby Scoring Leader
Martin Offiah MBE, is the most famous rugby league player the British game has ever produced. A dazzling runner and lethal finisher, he has scored over 500 tries in his career representing Widnes, Wigan, London Broncos and Salford. One of only two players to have won the Lance Todd trophy twice, he has also represented his country, Great Britain with distinction, as well as playing union for the baa baas, England students, Roslyn Park, Bedford and more recently London Wasps. Not bad for someone who didn't pick up a rugby ball until he was 11 and had never seen a live rugby league match until he signed for Widnes in 1987 from Rosslyn Park. In an ironic twist Offiah became one of the few southerners to go north to seek his fame and fortune. After winning every honour in the game he returned south to join the London Broncos in 1996, helping to put them, and the game in the south on the sporting map.
