Leeds Rhinos are preparing for their biggest attendance in four years against Leigh Leopards – Total Rugby League

LEEDS RHINOS will be heading for their biggest attendance in four years when they welcome Leigh Leopards on Friday night.

That’s because the match will be dedicated to the late Leeds legend Rob Burrow CBE, who sadly passed away a week ago.

The stadium is set to be at full capacity for the first time since the testimonial game in January 2020, when Burrow made his last appearance at the famous home of Leeds Rhinos.

Burrow’s family and former teammates will be in attendance, including overseas stars Ali Lauitiiti, Danny Buderus and Andrew Dunemann who will fly in for the night.

The Rhinos will also welcome members of the MND community to the game to raise awareness and funds for those affected by the disease.
