EVERYWHERE it was Rob. Everywhere it was the No.7.
Leeds Rhinos came out in force last night to celebrate the life of the legendary Rob Burrow.
Ever since his death almost three weeks ago, rugby league has paid tribute to the iconic scrum-half.
From Castleford to Hull, St Helens to Wembley, Wigan to Lock Lane.
But Headingley, of course, was Burrow’s spiritual home where the genius player lit up so many matches and enjoyed so many glorious nights.
In Rhinos’ first home game since his passing, this was the night where his adoring faithful could come together and properly honour him.
Burrow’s wife, Lindsey, and family were there to see the remarkable outpouring of love and affection.
