The NRL club is understood to be considering a way to honour “Bobby” whose attendance at training sessions and games was often accompanied with gifts for the players.

Several of the club’s staff are also likely to attend the funeral at a date yet to be confirmed.

Maroons forward Wallace told the Bulletin how much Anderson will be missed.

“We have a lot of passionate and special members but Bobby was one of a kind,” he said.

“He wouldn’t miss a training session and he certainly wouldn’t miss a game.

“He was a great man who was always there for a chat and he gave as good as he got with all the boys.

“Bobby knew all the stats and never missed a milestone. I’ve got milestone pieces hanging in my house that Bobby made. He would print pictures, get plaques made and get it all framed up for us. All out of his own pocket.

“We’ll miss big Bobby and when we get back to training there will certainly be someone missing from the club.”
