A bumper Challenge Cup final weekend is the perfect opportunity to pay tribute to the late Rob Burrow, Warrington Wolves head coach Sam Burgess has said.
"Hopefully everyone puts on a great performance. There's three great matches and we all do him justice."Burrow, an eight-time Super League winner with his only club, Leeds Rhinos, was one of the most successful rugby league players in history and was made an MBE in the 2021 New Year Honours for services to sport and the MND community.
"It doesn't really discriminate. It's really aggressive. We know as a family first-hand exactly what it's like. Despite the sport losing a figurehead in Burrow, Farrell believes that his legacy will remain and a huge day at Wembley is the first opportunity for that to take hold.
