I'm in tears watching the video; not only at the obvious sadness that underlies the occasion, but also tears of joy - to see the RL community come together like this, as they always do, is so humbling. Rob Burrow was always the smallest and the bravest player on the field. Seeing the likes of JJB, Sinfield, Leuluai, Senior, Bailey, McGuire and Peacock take the field, as a Saints fan, brings back both great and terrible memories. This group of men dominated their era, and did it with style, and central to it all, was Rob Burrow. What a gesture from JJB to have shared his testimonial - a true measure of the depth of this man's character. Well done to the Bradford & Leeds fans for packing out the stadium. Well done to the Bradford players, for such a generous gesture, paying to come through the turnstiles before the game. Well done to both clubs for supporting such a momentous occasion. And thank you to Rob Burrow - you have given all of us who are fans of the game, irrespective of team colours, unparalleled entertainment. You have inspired so many with your courage on the field, and now you continue to do so with your courage off it. A fitting tribute to a true giant of the game.
A truly emotional day, there was people in tears all around the south stand. The atmosphere was the strangest mixture of joy and sadness, I will never forget being there!
Big respect for jjb. Sharing the lime light for a good friend when in need. Your an absoloute legend and a true gent. Thanks for your continued service to the club. 🦏M.O.t
