Finally taken by MND aged 41.
Awful.
My heart goes out to Lyndsey and his beautiful children.
An absolute warrior both on and off the pitch 💙💛

Very sad news, he fought so bravely. His family must be devastated, also his friend Kevin Sinfield who did so much to raise awareness of MND.2

Very sad news indeed, RIP Rob. Lost a relative to MND, it’s a horrible disease. Thoughts with his wife, family and friends at such a sad time for all.1

RIP. Such a sad story, but also what an example he set to us all.1

Such sad news R.I.P Rob as well as his family my heart goes out to Kevin Sinfield who should be knighted3

A legend and not for his recent health decline. A much loved player in rugby world. RIP.0

Horrible way to go, becoming a shell of the person you were. Far too young, but faced with a level of bravery and stoicism that I could dream of achieving. Plus his friendship with his best mate is the kind of thing we all should want.

This incredible moment inspired me a year later to run the Rob Burrow Leeds Marathon only a few weeks ago to raise money for MND in memory of my dad who was taken by the same horrible disease.Rob Burrow was an incredible human being in the way he fought one of the worst diseases out there, raising millions in the process. He deserves all the praise and accolades that come his way. RIP and sympathy to his lovely young family.48

Terribly sad news. RIP Rob0

One can't have anything but admiration for Rob Burrow for what he achieved in his short life as both a sportsman and later in his fight to manage the limitations this horrible disease presented him with. Condolences to his wife, Lyndsey and his children as well as his extended family and so many friends including his best mate, Kevin Sinfield. Why neither Rob nor Kevin have been knighted is, perhaps, an argument for another day but jars given how many others are rewarded for doing nowhere near what they have in bringing MND to the attention of and raising money for the cause of fighting it.
RIP Rob Burrow, legend7 -
