A thorn in the side of his opponents but a joy to watch .
RIP Rob .

A very sad day. A proper legend on and off the field.

An absolute warrior. Good night God bless Rob.

Not wrong every time we played Leeds his was the one name I looked for and if he was not on the team sheet I thought our chances were that much better

Any words I could write about Rob could never be enough. A remarkable human being.

RIP Rob. My thoughts are with your family and friends

Cruel world and a cruel way to go. But at least he was supported and loved until the end. An absolute superstar on the field and by all accounts, a brilliant person off. I'm reminded of I believe his debut, against us when they had that maroon away kit. Think we thumped them that day but we got a glimpse of the fear he would strike in opposition for years to come that day when he skinned us from the scrum. Rest easy, Rob Burrow.

RIP Rob, a true legend and an inspiration to all, had the pleasure to meet him a few years ago, true gent and a great player. Sadly missed

In a way, it's a blessing that the inevitable has happened.
Rob, his family and friends, have suffered enough.
His legacy will be remembered, and Kevin Sinfield's efforts will keep MND research an important issue for years to come.

Small in stature with the heart of a lion and a wonderful man. Our sport should honour him for many many years to come.
God bless Rob and his family.

Very sad news. Remarkable character and that try he scored in the Grand Final from the halfway line is one of the all time greats.

Great player who was admired by the opposition fans too for his skills and speed, which is very rare nowadays.

R.I.P. Rob and sincere condolences to your family and loved ones.
