Balls.

Kind of knew it was coming but still.

What an absolute inspiration though.

Very sad. He and his family and friends did a heck of a lot to raise awareness and money for MND.

A sad day.

A great, great man.

A friend of mine has MND and Burrows has proved to be a great inspiration to him.

What a horrible, horrible disease.

RIP.

Not a surprise... But extremely sad news. As was watching his decline.

Hell of a human being.

Never heard of him but 5 years of suffering is totally inhumane.

RIP.

May he rest in peace, finally free of the pain and torture of this horrible illness.

What an inspirational man.

Heartbreaking to watch what MND did to him.

Great player and, like his friend, an inspirational man.

It’s not the size of dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog. Ain’t been none larger.
Some bloke was RB7, some bloke indeed.

RIP, so tough and brave.

Thoughts are with his family and friends.

Fantastic player, never liked it when he played against my team (Saints) back in his heyday.

Rest easy Rob.
