One last one from me tonight - let's put some respect on Dec Patton's name tonight. Apart from the kick he put out on the full (which I'm sure he would have been harangued for if Wire lost) he was outstanding. A real coming-of-age performance from him

Absolutely awful news. What a player what a man. Rest in peace Rob 😥
It is with deep sadness that the club can confirm that former player Rob Burrow CBE has passed away, aged 41.
