This is such devastating news, my condolences to Sol’s family. It was always such a pleasure working with Sol when he joined us on Sportsworld. He was great company and always had a big smile on his face. He will be sorely missed.

My 1st original idea, turned produced VT for the @BBCNews at 1, asking why former #rugbyleague legends are thriving as #rugbyunion coaches, as Andy Farrell looks to lead @IrishRugby to the @SixNationsRugby GS. Masterfully scripted by @JoeWilsonwords and edited by Will Smith.

Is there a more dominant and high achieving team in British sport right now than St Helens? Four Super League titles in a row and now world champions. And from a Northern working class town with a population of just over 100K. #RugbyLeague
