Leeds Rhinos have condemned a disgusting fake social media post that claimed rugby league icon Rob Burrow had passed away.
Burrow, 40, is battling motor neuron disease (MND) and has worked tirelessly to raise awareness of the devastating illness since his diagnosis in 2019. His close friend Kevin Sinfield has also played a role in the fight, raising more than £8million for MND charities.
The pair's fantastic work has led to increased media scrutiny, allowing one disgraceful individual to post an appalling lie about Burrow's health on Saturday morning. His former club Leeds Rhinos soon responded by confirming the legendary ex-player is "fine".
