A rugby league administrator and member of both print and broadcast media will be inducted into the NRL Hall of Fame alongside as many as four players for the very first time this year.

While which members of the media have been nominated remains under wraps until Wednesday and the 25 players considered for induction won't be revealed until Thursday, the 11 administrators short-listed for the honour were named on Monday evening.
