What a terrible shame .

God Bless
R.I.P.

absolutely gutted

Rename the mos
Steve Prescott man of steel

So sad. But will be remembered as an absolute legend of a man.

Devastating news, no words can describe Steve Prescott as a man. A true inspiration to many and he will be sadly missed.

RIP Steve.

Terribly sad news. Hard to take in even though we knew this day would come.

Sincere condolences to his family and friends.

I echo the thoughts of everyone really.

A real life superhero who inspired thousands and will be sadly missed.

His legacy will live on.

R.I.P Steve, a legend.

Terrible news, RIP Steve, there are no worlds to describe what you achieved and what your legend has become.
The RFL should name the MOS after him, as he was the embodiment of it.

Terrible news - a sad loss for his family and our sport.

Heard this earlier today, although i knew he had cancer and had been battling for years the news really shocked me, i had no idea he was so ill..RIP Steve, a true saint in every sense of the word, i also thought the applause during the proposed silence was very fitting and brought a tear to my eye..

What an absolute legend. I was delighted to see the minute's silence turn into a minute's applause at today's match. That was such a more fitting recognition of Prekkie's incredible achievements.

Dreadful news. A man of great dignity, and a great RL player

RIP Steve Prescott.
