The Challenge Cup final on Saturday will be moved from its traditional timeslot of 3pm and kick off seven minutes later as part of the extensive tributes planned by both rugby codes to celebrate the life of Rob Burrow this weekend.
Burrow died at the weekend at the age of 41, four and a half years after being diagnosed with motor neurone disease. His death has caused an outpouring of grief both within rugby league and beyond, and the Rugby Football League has confirmed there will be a series of tributes before and during the men’s final between Wigan Warriors and Warrington Wolves on Saturday.
