On this special episode of The Bench with Jenna and Jon, rugby league historian Tony Collins joins us to look back on the life of one of the sport's all-time greats - Sir Billy Boston - who died at the age of 92.
He was the first ever rugby league player to receive a knighthood, and was also the first black player to represent Great Britain.
Tony tells us about his upbringing in Cardiff, his move to Wigan and just what a special talent he was on the pitch.
