As  part of its centenary celebrations for  Twickenham Stadium the Rugby Football Union has  launched its search for the 'Player of the  Century.'

The public vote starts now and  fans can choose their favourite player covering  the last 100 years of matches at Twickenham by  going to the website of the widely respected  'World Rugby Museum'  located in the East Stand of the stadium.  

It's easy to enter and by going to  www.rfu.com/museum supporters can have their say  as the RFU celebrates Twickenham Stadium's  centenary with a series of events, including the  chance to choose their favourite star from the  Museum's 'Wall of Fame', which contains 100 of  Twickenham's finest players.

To qualify  for the vote and the 'Wall of Fame' a player  must have achieved the following  criteria:

Appeared at Twickenham in a  full international match
Retired from the  international game.
Achieved 'greatness' in  their international career
Played a part in a  memorable match at Twickenham  Stadium.

The winner will be announced at  a Centenary Grand Gala Dinner on November 2,  2009 and entries must be submitted by Friday,  October 30.

For more details of the  dinner go to www.rfu.com/centenary

The  World Rugby Museum  itself is marking the centenary with an  exhibition, which opens on October 2, looking  back over the century, highlighting great games  and players and the changing appearance of  Twickenham stadium, whose capacity was increased  to 82,000 with the completion of the South Stand  seating bowl in November 2006.
