The Impossible Dream video is a tribute to Roger Millward. His ‘Impossible Dream’ was to play at Wembley before he retired. He had achieved most things in rugby including victory over the ‘Unbeatable Foe’ (Australia) but his Wembley dream came true on May 3rd 1980. Despite sustaining a broken jaw in a tackle, Roger still managed to drop a goal and help his side to victory and achieve his ‘Impossible Dream’.

Roger Millward represented Great Britain and England 46 times. 45 of these were as a Rovers player, the other being as an 18 year old when at Castleford.
