Hull KR legend Phil Lowe has died at the age of 74 following a long battle with illness.
A World Cup winner with Great Britain, the former second-rower is regarded as one of KR's greatest-ever players after scoring 179 tries in 418 games. The Hull native made his Rovers debut in 1967 and saw out his career at his hometown club following a successful spell in Australia with Manly Sea Eagles. Lowe helped the Robins to Challenge Cup glory in 1980 – which remains the club's sole success in the competition – and also won the Championship, Premiership and Yorkshire Cup.
Lowe coached York following his retirement and enjoyed two spells with Rovers as a director, serving as club chairman between 1992 and 1994 before a stint as football director. Hull KR owner Neil Hudgell said: 'Phil was an extraordinary man, a one-off. 'He achieved everything in the sport, being a Grand Final winner on both sides of the world. He was decorated for his country many times over. 'Phil did it with modesty and humility.
