Les Boyd's NRL Hall of Fame induction has caused a stir in the rugby league world, with former rival Darryl Brohman coming out swinging against the decision.
Brohman, known for his hard tackles and never-say-die attitude on the field, has slammed the NRL for including Boyd among its prestigious Hall of Fame inductees.
The incident in question dates back to 1983, during a State of Origin match where Boyd, a tough as nails player with a no-nonsense approach, famously broke Brohman's jaw with a bone-crunching hit.
Brohman, a legend in his own right with a never-say-die attitude and a never-back-down mentality, was left reeling from the blow and had to sit out several matches as a result.
Despite the controversy surrounding his induction, the NRL is sticking to its guns and will be hosting a formal ceremony for the inductees at the iconic SCG next Wednesday.
It's sure to be a night filled with nostalgia, celebration, and maybe even a few surprises as rugby league legends past and present come together to honor the game and its rich history.
The NRL Hall of Fame is a place where only the best of the best are enshrined, and whether you agree with Boyd's induction or not, one thing is for certain - rugby league fans will be talking about this for years to come.
