Think someone explained it's to do with timings between honours but bollocks to that. If we are going to bother with an honours system then it's absolutely the likes of Rob and Kev that we should be celebrating.

There was a very touching interview with Rob's teammate Stevie Ward on SSN yesterday, it was conducted in front of the "shrine" at Leeds Rhino's.

He said he'd kept in touch with Rob and his wife Lyndsey and described some of the sadness but most of all the humour they'd shared together, Ricky Gervais fans especially the Office and Stevie took his guitar to Rob's house and played the "Freelove Freeway" just for a laugh because he couldn't sing or play guitar, the personality of this brave fella continues to shine.

It's MND day today, Leeds are live on Sky, it's going to be emotional, Rob you are still a star.
 
Jeez that was emotional to watch. After the game they showed his career highlights on the big screens in the stadium, the camera then panned to his dad in the stands crying, oh man I'm in bits.
 
Didn't watch much of the game as I'm not a huge rugby fan (perhaps testimony to the impact he had in transcending a single sport) but the tributes and celebrations of his life before and then after the game which I did watch were very, very special.
 
"In a world full of adversity we must dare to dream.

Rob Burrow over and out"

If that doesn't get you then you are already dead.
