words and sum up Rob for us yeah it's an incredibly difficult time at the minute to uh reflect um but that's what we've been doing for last few hours certainly last night was a difficult evening uh but this morning the love the sentiment that's been pouring in as a reflection of Rob's life and the Legacy that he's Left Behind it's just amazing you use the word that transcending I think he's not just transcended Rubble league but sport the nation and he he gave out a message you know to do it for a mate with a mate we' run the marathon here a few weeks ago and you see the the the outpouring the love there and benevolence that came on the back of that and I think for me it's the Courage the word courage that stood out Rob his courage to play the game with his size and his stature something that people at the start thought was a weakness he used it as a strength he was world class he Shan he was a superhero inspired so many young people to play the game had some wonderful moments and then that courage shown even brighter post career in that Journey that I had from the 15th of December 2019 right through the 2nd of June 2024 and that that courage will continue the
