00:00Rob was not just a remarkable sportsman, he was a beacon of hope, a source of strength

00:12for countless individuals. Throughout his career with the Toronjos, Rob dazzled us with

00:19his agility, his speed and unwavering spirit.

00:28This is about Wimbledon. We can boast many great players, we all have our favourites

00:34over different generations. Every club has its most iconic, legendary figure and Leeds

00:41can boast many such individuals. However, I can say without fear or contradiction that

00:56At Leeds Hospital's charity we were also proud to call him a patron and like in every

01:00other aspect of his life, he gave his all unconditionally. If he asked and he could,
