G'day folks, how you doing? It's Russell Crowe here coming to you live from Sydney Harbour.
00:05
See, we do get the occasional grey day for those people in England. I know I've been
00:12
talking to you a lot lately about the indoor garden party tour of Europe that's coming
00:17
up soon, but this message is not about that. I'd like to talk to you about what's coming
00:22
up this weekend. It's the Challenge Cup final. It's Wigan versus Warrington. But more specifically,
00:29
I want to talk to you about the passing of the little champion Rob Burrow this week.
00:35
And on the weekend at Wembley, when all the finals are taking place, in every finals game
00:40
in the seventh minute, there's going to be a minute of celebration of Rob's life and
00:46
his contribution to the sport. And beautifully, it's not going to be a minute of silence,
00:51
it's going to be a minute of applause. And I think that's befitting the little champion.
00:56
Personally, I have some guilt to bear because I was supposed to do this podcast and it's
01:01
one of those things that I kept saying to myself, "I'll get around to it, I'll get around
01:04
to it." Now, I'm going to have to deal with the fact that I messed that up. Anyway, so
01:09
if you love rugby league and you loved what that little champion did in every single jersey
01:16
that he ever played in, go to Wembley. Go to Wembley and celebrate his life and his
01:22
career and celebrate the rugby league community.
