| Hull FC fan here. Just wanted to share what I have just posted over on our board:
Such devastating news when it broke last night and one that has been on my mind ever since. Such a great player and one that commanded respect on the field from both his teammates and his opponents, rightfully adored by Leeds supporters and admired by fans from all other clubs. Not many players can do that. But to then go through what he did afterwards and to face it with the attitude and bravery that he did and help bring such a cruel disease to the public conscious... he was a class player but an even classier person.
RIP to him. My thoughts have been with his family and friends and everyone that is mourning his loss.

| Rob Burrow 100% Rhino we know that.
As a Hull KR fan I remember before our SL days being drawn away to you lot in the CC and obviously having no chance whatsoever. But hey we got to the 60 minute mark not so far behind ...... then this young livewire Burrow came off the bench and ran us absolutely ragged.
That was my first recollection of the player Rob Burrow.
Hull Kingston Rovers will be wearing special tribute Rob Burrow warm up shirts in their away fixture at Headingley
