| If you haven't read this book - I strongly recommend you do.
It gives a great insight into the Rhinos over the golden generation period - its well written without being too gushy
If you can read it without a little tear you are are a very hard individual.

Graham - I agree but maybe a hard b@stard like him was needed at the time - but to say he was supposed to have better people skills than Tony Smith it doesn't appear so. Smith comes out of this well as does Barry McDermott.

It probably sums McDermott up the best - Rob's wife seems an incredibly strong woman under the circumstances - shame he didn't win last night

A rare breed, such an inspiration as an athlete and as a person.

| My colleague and close friend has recently run the Marathon De Sables (6 marathons in 6 days in the Sahara dessert) for an incurable childrens cancer. He and Kev know eachother well and are cut from the same stuff, both inspiring individuals.

| It’s more than the total raised, although of course that’s important. There is something about the momentum into the dark cold winter days, and the problems many have encountered with COVID etc - and many of us will face more challenges ahead. It may well be an incredibly tough time for many.
For me what the Sinfield events have done is remind me about mateship and compassion for others when chips are down, and I think that is his greatest gift with these runs.

| Looks like they are over £1m now with the gift aid, what an utterly inspiring man Sir Kev is , raised massive amounts of cash & awareness for MND, undoubtedly helping in the decision to increase the funding.

| For me it's the courage of Rob and then Kev just wanting to do whatever he can to help his mate. Awesome.
Time to treat research into this disease to some serious funding.
