Incredibly sad, Rob has fought a horrendous illness with bravery and dignity. Am no Rugby fan but through all the shit happening in the world over the past through years Rob and Kevin Sinfield have shown the best of human nature and the meaning of friendship. May you rest in peace Rob

What an inspiration.
What a man.
I used to love watching him play rugby league. He was an absolute titan on the pitch. Smallest man, but the bravest. And the best.
RIP Rob.

Just seen on the BBC and don’t mind admitting brought a tear to my eye.
Over the last couple of years there’s no one thats brought more inspiration to the world than Rob with his mate Kev and wife Lindsey. A true hero.
Very sad RIP Rob and thoughts with your lovely family.

He was a very good player ( destroyed my team regularly ) but that was nothing compared to what he achieved after his diagnosis. A remarkable man with an equally remarkable family. Small in stature but leaving a massive legacy. RIP

Weirdly met Kevin on a flight to Greece a few years ago which was about a year or so after hearing about Rob’s MND battle and Kevin’s trying to raise money for it (actually one of the better reasons for social media). Kevin was a really non assuming bloke trying to raise money for his mate. Awful stuff. RIP Rob and thoughts to his family and friends.

Extremely sad to hear. My dear dad tragically succumbed to MND many years ago, so I can completely relate to this on a personal level. You’re a hero in my eyes, Rob, for both platforming this terrible disease and for your immense courage in fighting it all the way.
RIP

A truly vile illness.
Had an exceptional playing career.
Showed remarkable dignity and resilience to achieve more in the 4 or so years he suffered with MND than most of us do in a lifetime.
RIP.

RIP Rob Burrow.
What a brutal disease.
As well as Kevin Sinfield I thought Rob's wife was inspirational too.
