"Tragically sad news just in, of a Leeds Rhinos rugby league legend. Died at the age of just 41, following his well documented battle with Motor Neurone Disease.

I just saw it. What sad news and what a bastard disease. Legend of a man. RIP Rob and hope his family and friends can take some comfort from his enormous legacy. |

I think his story captivated many many people who wouldn’t have even known his name before. Along with the heroic fundraising challenges how great mate, Sir Kev undertook, he will not soon be forgotten as a massive champion for the MND community. |

A friend of mine has just been diagnosed with it. Brutal brutal cruel disease. Let's hope it gets some attention now as treatments (or complete lack of them) haven't moved for decades. 41 though... Just a kid. I'll be honest . Bought a tear to my eye. |

An absolutely wonderful human being with a courageous and strong family around him and aided by a total rock like Sir (well he should be in my opinion) Kevin Sinfield amongst others.
Rob had a career that many dream about and was taken far far too early.
R.I.P. Sir |

"Reading the tributes this morning have brought a little tear to my eyes again.
Rob, and the rest of that great generation of Rhinos are the biggest reason I love rugby league still today. "
When KS carried him across the line it absolutely broke me. |

That was beyond a little tear. That was full on blubbing like a baby. A truly beautiful moment to see. |
