The rugby league hero became a tireless campaigner and fundraiser after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease in 2019, just two years after retiring.

The dad-of-three, who played nearly 500 times for Leeds Rhinos and won eight Super League titles, was supported by close friend and ex-teammate Kevin Sinfield, 43.
