I don't have the background to contribute to this list, except that I read the book about the beginnings of French RL courtesy of poster Paul. The title escapes me at the moment, but I recall there were 2 or 3 early French players who dazzled the English during tours. They should be on this legends' list, I think. I also can't remember their names, I hope Paul or someone else who's read the book can help.
