I received the sad news last night that Sir Billy had passed, only days after Lady Joan was laid to rest. Proud and happy to have helped a part in getting the recognition they both deserved and could enjoy during their life’s. #SirBilly #Codebreakers
Rugby league legend Sir Billy Boston has died, aged 92.
Boston, born in Cardiff, became the first player in rugby league's 130-year history to receive a knighthood last year.
The legendary rugby league winger scored an incredible 478 tries in 488 games for Wigan, helping them win three Challenge Cups and the Championship.
What @WiganWarriorsRL did for Sir Billy Boston tonight was incredible. His knighthood was many years overdue but to see his face tonight when old teammates came out and Russell Watson serenading him was superb.
King of the town, there’ll never be another #sirbilly

Llongyfarchiadau Billy Boston🏴
We are delighted that he is to be made a Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire and become Sir William John Boston KBE.
It is a well-deserved honour for the second highest try scorer in rugby league history.

@0_Pieman__ They're always trying to squeeze Mav in somewhere PM.
Obsessed, they are.
Have to say, I think this is Sir Billy's Day though and nothing can overshadow it.

It was a real highlight having #BillyBoston back in Cardiff in 2023 for the unveiling of the #CodeBreakers statue, honouring Cardiff legends like him who conquered the world of Rugby League.
Delighted that today he's been knighted - further long-overdue recognition #SirBilly
@Macetrott Excluding that kick, he solidified himself as All Australian captain and dare I say it is leading the way for Kings birthday honours for 2026, for services to defence……… #SirBilly
