My thoughts are with his beautiful little family 😢 & Kevin Sinfield,. The worlds best -Best mate!

[@dianecameron137]

bless him and his lovely family so brave awful illness but they have done so much to bring it to the front hope it helps get a cure for this terrible illness

[@chrisgoodwill3818]

Kevin Sinfield should be made a Sir, 100%

[@ArjunGhag-ix7te]

Was ☆Rob one of the bravest men in the world? WW2 spirit of the brave fallen was strong in him. Last time i felt this moved & touched was when brave 3 🦁 Bobby Moore died too young. Rugby Leagues GOAT is out of pain & has moved onto his after life. So Brave. I liked him a lot. He is the GOAT RL guy cuz he was an average height average wieght guy who ran rings around literal 6ft 4in Giants. At least the pocket rocket is out of pain now & i hope that brings comfort to his nice family.

Bless your heart, Rob. RIP. This is the kind of English man due a Knighthood. Respect family and Kevin Sinfield.

Since when did you start using 'passes' for 'dies?

[@maggi0310]

RIP ROB what an awesome guy😢

[@Saucyjack-e7w]

RIP Rob never forget you👍👍👍👍👍

[@robertstrong6798]

Truly inspirational and a legend who helped people even in his last few years. A sleazy Tory MP destroying our country going back to work is not inspirational

[@brianpotter3870]

Absolutely brilliant Rugby League player, taken far too early…..RIP.

[@timaruoutlaws1905]

RIP Rob from a fan in New Zealand.

[@itsmelampoi]

Ive only followed Rugby league a short time 10yrs , but when Rob was in the starting line up or came off the bench your heart sank. Such a dangerous runner , Rest in peace Rob.- Saints fan .

The 1,000 day disease. RIP Rob. You were an inspiration.

[@MySUPERkate]

Absolute legend!! The female presenter was so patronising here! And there were ‘2 little girls’ AND ‘a little boy!’ 3 children!! Also it’s Rob Burrow!! Not Burrows!!! 😢 I’m still not over this news. Absolutely heartbroken and devastated xx i

[@denisburgess2966]

God bless him may he rest in peace.

[@VaucluseVanguard]

"Passes" - What did he pass? A shop? A bus stop? Oh, you mean he died. Great shame sounds like he was a great guy.
