Watched the 5 min bit on iplayer . Very sad indeed

It’s been changed to tomorrow (13/10/20) at 7pm because of the government announcement

What can you say about that. So many emotions watching it and whilst it’s an unbelievably tough watch, there were parts that made you smile and to see the pride and the love he has for his family/friends and vice versa gives you comfort. He’s fighting it but it’s so cruel how quick it’s advancing. As soon as it’s allowed I’m sure rugby league as a whole will go in to overdrive in its efforts to fundraise and to spread awareness. To have to deal with the situation around Covid at the same time as this has been horrendous for them I’m sure.

Sad to see Rob Burrow in the state he is in watched the program tonight shed a tear from the Beep Beep which we all knew to his present state. I feel sorry for his family his wife and parents must be going through hell knowing he is dying and no cure touching point was when Rob said he was glad it was not his children had caught the disease.

My Wife and I found the programme very emotional in the way that this great player had become a victim of the terrible MND disease so soon after retiring from the game.

People should not have to suffer like he is doing!

So sad, for Rob, his family and all those close to him.

Watched this this morning. I’m heartbroken by it, the most profound moment for me was at the end when he’s speaking to Sally Nugent through his phone not being able to speak and he says “I’m determined to beat this disease. My positive mind set will let me beat it.”

What a human, what a man.

My God, that was not easy.

I take my hat of to the Burrow family for doing this for the greater good.

His deterioration is so fast and a real tragedy. I just hope he continues on for as long as possible with the dignity he has earnt and deserves.

Respect.
