They seem to be a Queensland thing. They wanted to put a statue of a cane toad up at the place they were released but the Govt wouldn't pay for it.

Legend, and respect etc but can I please ask why Artie Beeston has a statue at Lang Park?
He played ONE origin game, did he play many games there in the brisbane comp or something?
He played for Redcliffe in his last season

It'd be good to see in time some more players get statues, besides the current ones who would you choose?

Cowboys - Matt Scott
Brisbane - Maybe Langer, maybe Cameron Smith or JT if they go keep going down the QLD Legends path.
Gold Coast - Probably nobody yet, maybe Preston Campbell.
Newcastle - Chief & Joey
SFS - Fittler, Beetson
Bankwest - Sterling
Penrith - Alexander, would be weird having a statue of Todd Byrne for the Sattler tackle.
Tigers (which ground?) - The flick pass.
Canberra (new ground) - Daley and/or Stuart
Mt Smrt - Stacey Jones.
Brisbane, Newcastle, Wollongong, Kogarah & SFS - Darius.

The Daley Statue provides ample coverage from the elements
It's said 500-700 people can keep themselves dry under his nose

Outside of JT if i was going to pick one person to have a statue that turned a club around and had an everlasting effect and set up the blueprint for success to follow for years to come it would be an easy pick.
