Leeds Rhinos legend Rob Burrow MBE will be the guest of honour at tonight's Super League game with Huddersfield (19th August 2021).

It's the first time the eight-time Grand Final winner will be at the Emerald Headingley on a match day since January 2008.

The former player held a fundraising game with Jamie Jones-Buchanan, which saw a record crowd watching Leeds legends beating Bradford Bulls 34-10.

Burrow was inducted into the Leeds Hall of Fame in 2020, and is a patron of the MND Association.

As part of his appearance this evening, he will also be launching his book, 'Too Many Reasons to Live'.
