The eldest daughter of Leeds legend Rob Burrow has made an emotional and impassioned speech urging people to vote for her late father's documentary at this year's National Television Awards.
Macy Burrow, 13, was speaking following Leeds Rhinos impressive 28-6 victory over Hull KR on Thursday evening.
Rob's third and final documentary has made the final five for the National TV Awards - and the YEP is asking the people of Leeds to help ensure Rob's family collect the award in his memory at the live show in London on September 10.
And speaking to a room full of people earlier in the week, Macy got up on stage to deliver the message to the club in order to help spread the news and collect votes.
