Devastating just awful.

Utterly lost for words, I guess everyone in the game feels the same. Poor Rob...

Same pal. Devastated for Rob and his family. Just pray he finds the strength to live a long a life as possible.

Absolutely awful news. Incredible player and a down to earth bloke.

On a side note, Will there be an opportunity to make a donation to either him or a MND charity at the Boxing Day match?

Shocking news. Thoughts go to him and his family

Great player nice bloke,

Always played with a lions heart, wish him and his family the best

Wife and 3 adorable young kids. Can't believe it...

Very sad news, always liked Burrows, I didn't like what he did to us but you had to admire him. Hope for the best.

Sad news for Rob and his family wish him all the best he's a champion.

Sad news about a real all time legendary Leeds player true one club man and a genuine once in a lifetime player.
Really gutted to hear about his problem.
The rhinos foundation and virginmoney have a fund raising page hopefully some one could post a link Robs young family need the full support from the whole rugby league fraternity.
All the best to the Burrow family.

Same as everyone else. I don't know what to say.

Sad sad news this - thinking of Rob and his family (and Geoff his dad)

Best wishes - Bulls fan

Wow devastating news. Was just talking to colleagues at work about this awful disease the other day after Doddie Wear was on SPOTY and saying how it is neglected for research due it being so rare then this.

Rob was pound for pound the toughest player i have ever seen on a rugby field so know he will fight this all the way.

Terrible news, thoughts are with him and his family

Terrible news for Rob and his family.
I found Doddie's feature and his speech on SPOTY incredibly moving.
Tough fights ahead for both men and their loved ones.

Dont know how I can add to the comments. Heartbreaking news those three young children. Why does it seem to happen to the best people. ?
Hard to believe it's only 2 years since his last game
