| Very sad news if so. We haven't had a Captain of his calibre since he was at the helm.
Truly a great player and an inspiration to the team.

| Have I missed something here - I know the great man has passed but the silence about his passing is deafening!
Perhaps it may be at the request of his family that no public announcement has been made, I don't know but I cannot help thinking if it had been a Wigan or Leeds 'great' we would have had it stuffed down our throat.
Never though that DT got the recognition he deserved, as far as I am concerned his status as a RL player is up at the top.

It is "Fifita" not "Fafita"
If you don't know the difference between "there", "their" and "they're" I might get annoyed.
Sharing First World problems so you can get it right first time.

| The best loose forward I've ever seen,When I was playing Amateur under 17s rugby in 1957, I used to try and style my game on Rocky. I think he was playing for Oldham then. At that time Whiteley and Karalius were top loose forwards but Rocky Turner was the best. RIP
