@SaintsRugby He even said the first contact was shoulder to shoulder! 🤬

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@rugbyontnt @ExeterChiefs Forward pass surely?

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@rugbyontnt Can’t believe Bath didn’t drop a goal to steal that. Camped in front of the sticks. Criminal.

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@rugbyontnt He’s absolutely right.

[TopShagger @Plentyshit]

It’s warm ☀️🥵

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@leedsrhinos How the bloody hell can pulling the ball backwards towards you be a knock on?? 🤔

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

Sad news about Garry Schofield. One of the legends of my youth watching Leeds RLFC as they were. Keep fighting Garry. 💙💛💙

@SixNationsRugby 8B without a doubt.

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

I challenge anyone not to be moved by this. 😢

[Sky Sports Rugby League @SkySportsRL]

That reception for Rob's dad, Geoff Burrow ❤️

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@SkySportsRL @leedsrhinos It’s easy to see where Rob got his character and bravery from. The whole world felt for you Geoff. 😢

[EFL @EFL]

The EFL is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of its former Chief Operating Officer, Andy Williamson OBE.

Andy was a life member of the EFL and retired from full-time employment in 2016 after 45 years of unbroken service to The Football League.

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

I’ll never forget this try or the man that created it. Just incredible.

[Tides of History @labour_history]

It took just six seconds for Rob Burrow to create the moment that will live with rugby league fans forever….

Iconic 💕

'By the time that you watch this I will no longer be here'

A poignant final message from the Leeds Rhinos legend and MND campaigner recorded before his death for a special BBC documentary 'There's Only One Rob Burrow'

@BBCOne @BBCiPlayer

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@BBCBreakfast Heartbreaking 💔

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@jimhamilton4 Really got me when he said ‘over and out’

[Steve Hartley @dieseldrinker62]

@leedsrhinos Incredibly sad news. A hugely courageous player on the pitch but so much more courage to face the MND battle he’s been through. Rest in Peace Rob. 💙💛💔
