If you haven't read this book - I strongly recommend you do.

It gives a great insight into the Rhinos over the golden generation period - its well written without being too gushy

If you can read it without a little tear you are are a very hard individual.

It probably sums McDermott up the best - Rob's wife seems an incredibly strong woman under the circumstances - shame he didn't win last night
