- Just before Christmas it was announced that Leeds Rhinos legend Rob Burrow had been diagnosed with motor neurone disease. The publics response was incredible with the fund set up to support Rob and his young family continuing to climb. You can donate now at virginmoneygiv...
Thanks to our friends at BBC Look North, here is the full interview with Rob and Tanya Arnold from that original announcement so you can hear from Rob in his own words how his approaching his battle with MND and how much your support means to him.
Bigger man than I'll ever be. Love and respect Rob. MOT
Blimey these Rugby League fellas are brave, but they are also very humble.
So I'm a 35 YO man reduced to tears... Robbie you won absolutely everything,your a superstar!,a hero! And a legend... And I remember one thing my old man who has sadly passed told me?... you don't have to be big to be good.
You were class.....
I'm sure I speak for all us leeds fans
We love you Robbie Burrow x
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS his head wasn't smaller and that has nothing to do with concussion. You could have a massive head with a small skull . Idiot
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS scouts for certain positions prefer bigger guys. But rob burrow was a halfback and size is not really needed for that position but clearly you dont know much about the game.
Allways had the odds stacked against u playing rugby rob. Showed everyone want a warrior and a fighter you are. Keep it up and stay positive. Best wishes to you and your family. M.O.T
What an inspiration you are Rob, you played as though you was 8 foot tall and as an avid Hull F.C fan i will always remember you squaring up against Luawaki lol. keep fighting on mate, with love from all Hull fans, God bless.
I honestly love everything about this man, brilliant player, can’t wait for Sunday to see this legend back on the field ❤️
And won’t lie cried a bit, can’t stand to see Rob like this.
THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS your stupid I play rugby and have since I was 5 the man was the best about and not the top number 1 but he was a bullet there is a reason he is called rob the pocket rocket burrow he could get offloaded the ball and just disappear he was brilliant and still is, you obviously don’t understand the game
THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS he suffered from MND nothing to do with the game, he always took out the big guys and why comment on a video of rugby league if you don’t like the game then you moron the guy is a legend and a Leeds hero
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS yeh but they aren't just because you played a contact spot. Name 5 rugby players who have any of those.
Why would he be back on the field
@@erdemir5641 This comment was nearly 3 years ago. He was back on the field in Jonesys testimonial and for his fund raising event back in Jan/Feb 2020
Stay positive Rob. The rugby league family are all behind you. Best wishes. Hull KR fan ❤️
Robbie you are a legend. My prayers are for you mate.
My heart breaks for him.all of the uk is behind you rob. Your inspirational to millions. Mot rob stay strong brother.
I'm a die hard Saints fan, but always loved watching him play... what Burrow lacked in height, he made it up with heart! Was truly shocked to learn he had this condition, and further saddened that I knew his voice is starting to go. He deserves every ounce of support from the RL family!
We love and support you Rob. Not just us Leeds fans, Rugby league fans, but a whole nation.
Beautiful man so humble and so courageous. What an evil condition. I hope his positive thinking carries him through.
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS First off wtf does his size have to do with anything and who are you to say the bloke shouldn't be playing?... Second if you even watch rugby league which i really doubt you do then you'd know you're taught as a kid to put your shoulder in and wrap your arms round the player in a tackle so where you get the idea players don't use their arms is a mystery.. Maybe take a break from being a complete prick and give the bloke a bit of credit for what he achieved
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS I know contact to the head can cause concussion that's why the shoulder charge was outlawed 7yrs ago and ANY contact to the head accidental or not is dealt with pretty harshly.. I'd like to know where you get your info that scouts discriminate against size aswell coz some of the best players we've ever had have been smaller including the fella we're talking about now but i guess if you're calling for some sort of size limit on who can and can't play which is just plain backwards
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS scouts assign players to a position. Size has little to do with it. If your smaller then you will probs be a halfback or hooker.
32 year old man i grew up watching u play. You wer an inspiration to watch an my heart goes out to you an your family. God bless you mate your a true legend X
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS fucking idiot dont comment such bullshit
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS stop commenting on a topic you know little about. He probably didn't get MND from rugby as anybody can get it.
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLSalso he never got brain damage.
@THATBLAKGUYFUKEDA TONOFWHITEGIRLS also rob was 65 kg which is a lot heavier than most 13 year olds so dont come at me with that shit
Hard to watch without getting emotional top guy ambassador for the game of rugby league true legend all the best to you and your family ❤ wigan fan.

Legend. Rip Rob x
Inspiration to many
Hope this is not percieved as a crass comment but i really hope im wrong and Rob is here along time. But he really seems struggling already when you consider he as only just been diagnosed he seems to struggle to swallow already and his speach. Stephn Darby and Doddie Wier talk abit different. Rob mate you are an inspirtion and i hope as you have been diagnosed only just you may have the chance of a cure or a life prolonger drug happens. You were the biggest man on the field mate good luck
PoorMan's Road2YaMother I think he has it with a while if you look back on interviews on RUclips back six months ago you would notice his voice slurred. So sad this to happen to a decent bloke with a young family. Wish him all the best.
Legend
Ain't dog in the fight but fight in the dog,stands eight foot tall this athlete .God bless you
M.O.T Robbie 🙏
This is so sad
so sad
