The greatest No7 this country as ever produced and this accolade is fully deserved.

A good friend of mine also

Fully deserved, Greg was a tremendous player in his day.It is very difficult to compare players from different eras but it in this case I would say without doubt Alex Murphy was the best of all.

[No straw damn us]

Great player and very well deserved. However the best this country has produced, not for me.
From the players I have seen, I would have Murphy, Jackie Edwards, Roger Millward and Shaun Edwards before him.

Couldn't argue too much with Murphy or Jackie Edwards, but purely as a scrum half I think Greg was way better than Shaun.

A little story about Andy. One morning my Mrs said "bugger you lying in bed I'm going out on my bike". I turned over and went back to sleep. Next minute the phone goes and this voice is saying "Hi John, its Andy Gregory here". You can imagine my confusion! He then said my wife had been knocked off her bike by Soapy Joes in Ashton. I jumped in the car and screamed round there to see Andy directing traffic whilst a passing nurse who had also stopped tended to my wife. Eventually the ambulance arrived and she was taken to Wigan Infirmary and pronounced ok after all the tests. The driver, who had turned in front of my Mrs to go in Soapy Joes ,was walking up and down with his head in his hands. He got sent on a driver awareness course-fine.

I understand Andy had a few problems after leaving the game, but is ok now. I will never forget that phone call, and his help that day. Top bloke.

One of my favourite players. A well deserved honour.

I've always said, Andy Gregory was the guy that made me fall in love with rugby league.

One of the very best on the field I have seen. Shame the club cant get him involved with us in some way. Looking after these guys who have given so much pleasure and struggled away from the game seems to be happening more these days.

He was the guy that always changed a game in wigans favour....... edwards and hanley had there off days but greg very rarely did......well deserved coz if edwards is in then greg had to be a certainty
