RIP to a man who commands so much respect. Some magic moments for me watching this guy play, often seemed to be labouring when he was actually really motoring! Deceptive little fella, great memories.

Since finishing playing his exploits in the face of adversity were truly tremendous, and a really nice human all round.

Great player, great man, great loss.

i have already posted on two of the reports on preccies passing away,and in one of them ,i`m asking that the RFL should name the man of steel trophy,THE STEVE PRESCOTT MEMORIAL TROPHY.i was 74yrs old yesterday ,and a veteran service man,but each time i read one of the posts ,i still get tears in my eyes.preccie will rip it up in gods team .

I remember that well. The game in which Tony Smith broke his leg. I was jumping around the living room when that went over.



His form in his final season before he injured his knee was outstanding, I recall many thinking he must be in contention for the man of steel. How fitting it would be for that trophy to now be named after him.



On the applause or silence debate, I can think of no more a fitting tribute then people making up their own minds about what the man warranted as a mark of respect. Hearing the applause start and then spread around the ground had me in tears. My partner, who didn't really know who he was summed it up perfectly when she said it was as if 25000 friends of his were in the stadium. Gutted that the man himself has gone but its important that his legacy and work that he's done for communities continues. My condolences to his family and friends. RIP Steve and thanks for the memories.

I think the term 'Legend' is a bit over-used these days. But if one guy warrants this title it is Steve. Not necessarily for his playing achievements but his achievements as a 'man' as a human being! True, true Legend in my eyes. Where the guy got the strength from god only knows. A true inspiration.

I think that the Hull v Saints game should be made into the Steve Prescott Memorial Trophy match, similare to what we used to have against Castleford for the Roy Waudby trophy

Great shout!

I am sure everybody has seen this and signed it , but wouldnt do any harm to publicise it again

Done and I've also posted the link on Facebook as not everyone reads these forums.

Done, really hope the RFL listen to the fans and honour this great man

A book of condolences is expected to be at the KC retail store from Wednesday for supporters to add messages.



James Clark just said on Radio Humberside that it's hoped that a memorial service will be held on Sunday 1st December (didn't mention the venue).
