YORK City Knights know a tough guy when they meet him. And Reece Turnbull is a true battler.

The four-year-old was struck down by a rare form of cancer. But just like the rugby team who took him to their hearts, Reece has never stopped fighting.

Today we are thrilled to report that his tumour has gone. Relieved mum Joanne can see "the light at the end of the tunnel".

For the Knights who raised enough money to send Reece to Disneyland, this is the best result ever.
