Rob Burrow and Kevin sinfield is what we should all aspire to

It's very rare that to see what a reel friend will do for his beloved friend! Kev is such an amazing person an inspiration to us all 😎👍👌👣♥

So sad time to rest ❤rip

Kevin, you're are a great friend to Rob ,a real friend. Rob you are now at peace. If there is a God you're on his team

I hated players like Burrow and Kevin Sinfield. Why, because they were amazing players and often played amazing against the Bradford Bulls. Seeing Burrow sick, and battle on, with Kevin, doing so much for charity was legendary and heartbreaking. No words can explain my sorrow, and I send all my thoughts and prayers to Robbie and his family. God bless ❤❤❤

Rip

Stay strong my brothers..Peace all round for ALL concerned,my ❤ bleeds for you guys😢

Kevin Sinfield deserves a knighthood for what he did for his best friend and his charity Rob was a legend and will be sorely missed 👍👍👍👍👍

You can see this was his best friend in the world and he would do anything for him, and vice versa. RIP Rob

Give Sinfield a knighthood.

Top man Kevin is, you can tell how much Rob meant to him! RIP Rob you were an extraordinary bloke

The world needs more Robs, and everyone needs a Kevin. In a cynical world, this pair are guiding lights. Love from Australia.

You’re a good man, Kevin. Much love ❤

Kevin thank you for what you did for Rob you're a great example of what friends mean to each other. The Rugby League world will never forget Rob and yourself.

This guy should get a knighthood for what he and Rob did. If everyone had a best friend like him the world would be a better place. RIP Rob.

Kevin and Rob. Both legends. Rob wanted no pity. He just wanted to do all he could to help people beat this awful disease. Kevin is an incredible, inspiration for us all. He described doing 7 ultra marathons in aid of MND as 'going for a run for a mate'. I have so much respect for both of them, and it is so inspiring to see such humanity and loyalty in an otherwise rotten world.

Kevin is Saint, what a bloody great bloke. If everyone in the world would take a leaf out of Kevin's book what a much better place it would be. Rob and Kevs friendship was amazing, two truly great Gentlemen

Seen Rob playing rugby a number of times live.. Pity he wasn't Welsh 😊 we would have adopted him in a heartbeat especially at the moment...He was such a little guy..but he played like a lion on the pitch..He was a bit 😊 it's fair to say..He will be hugely missed by all that knew him.. Just want to say Thank you Little big man for everything..it was joyful ...xx

Kev Seinfeld is a hero. RIP rob.

I know nothing about Rugby League but the determination, bravery & fortitude Rob Burrow showed in his fundraising & awareness of this cruel disease makes him a giant of an human being! RIP Rob & respect to Kevin for all his superhuman fundraising!

Kevin Sinfield always comes across as just the nicest guy and what a great friendship they had through good times and bad. Rob couldn’t have asked for a better friend and vice versa.

Kevin what lovely words you say about your best pal and his family the tears that everyone has shed for him will be emence. He will live in our hearts forever ♥️

What a legacy!....Such an inspirational human being...RIP LEGEND...God bless family & friends. Thank you Sir for your love for humanity. x

Sending my deepest condolences from the U.S.A to the Burrow family🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

For people who don't watch Rugby league this is what happens when you lose someone so dear and an ambassador for the game RIP ROB.

The love he had for Rob shows in his face. We could all do with a friend like kev.

Very hard to watch this, seeing Kevin so upset, they were more than friends, they were brothers. It’s like he’s lost an arm, it’s all just so devastating 💔

Be strong brother your the best mate he could have his tribute made a 60 year old man blubber

Pure emotion

Kev was such a back bone n still is for Rob has achieved so much for MND, what a guy n so close to rob n his family. Robs memories will live on 😢🙏RIP LEEDS WARRIOR.

Growing up in New Zealand Rob Burrow was one of my favorite rugby league players ever such a shock he's passed Rip to a legend

You deserve to be honoured, because of what you did for Rob and for helping raise money and awareness for MND. God bless you Kevin, we’re all thinking of you at this very difficult time. ❤️🙏🏽

He was a prophet and will never be forgotten.. Kevin is a saint.. Godspeed little man we will never forget your legacy… and I’m not talking about rugby although our memories of you both on the field are with us forever ❤

Condolences to Rob's family, friends and fans. Rob's wife Lindsey is a hero. A caring incredible person.

Its about time he was made Sir Kevin Sinfield, but knowing the man I doubt if he'd want that....A truly great gentleman. The best of the best.

On behalf of all Rugby League supporters in Australia, we express our deep sorrow for the loss of the brilliant man and player - Rob Burrow.

What a guy. I've said he should have knighted after Rob was diagnosed. He never left his friend. That's true friendship.

I remember meeting Rob and wat a gent is was I don't think I wud of met him if it was not for my ex but my heart goes out to robs family ❤ and friends miss you brother

Rob burrows what a legend on and off the pitch he was a world class rugby player allways said it the best go first r.i.p

So so sad such a beautiful family ,my thoughts and prayers are with u all today❤

You are a Gem Kevin.

I lost my dad through MND rob burrows passing brings the emotions all back one horrible disease to encounter RIP rob 🙏

How "SIR KEV" has never been knighted is the crime of the century. Hang on though, he's not a bent politician or peer or some other crook who works in the Houses Of Parliament giving back handers out in exchange for honours, he's just a fabulous human being who's done more than anyone could dare to imagine in terms of his rugby career and fund raising efforts so that counts for nothing when it comes to getting something back for what you've achieved in life.

Feel your pain kevin, you are not alone ❤

So sad he was always a threat on pitch hated him when he played against wigan rip 😢

If Kevin Sinfield never get knighted for the work and effort he’s done. It’s a travesty.

Thank you Kevin not only for being a great player but also for being a great friend

What a special friendship Kevin and Rob had.. It is now rare to find such a connection in today's world. Wonderful people. His spirit will live on ❤

What a man to speak out for is family and everyone els who loved rob well do Kevin

The world is a sadder place without Rob Burrow. Godbless you Rob. RIP.

Such an inspirational person. So much respect for Kevin and all his hard work and dedication to his best and the MND community! So much respect l! RIP Rob, condolences to the Burrow family!

He was so brilliant ❤ lots of love

Both legends in the toughest sport there is, both legends in life

Horrible. Injustice. He wanted to live. You should've let Him be and took others waiting in line. You wonder why people have little faith, this is a good example.

I knew Rob was a good player, I didn't realise how brilliant he was, as a union player myself I didn't watch too much league. I went through the archives of himself and the Leeds Rhinos. I really was amazed at how talented and tough he was. RIP ROB ❤ ❤❤❤

Kevin would have moved mountain's to save Rob if he could have. It's about time he was awarded with a Knighthood when you look at his MND efforts, playing and administration career and even being involved with the England rugby setup recently.

Devestated for your loss, but the phoenix from the ashes are the countless people that will benefit from the tireless charity work you've done.

He was my favourite rugby player and watching him run like a maniac up the field to get a try. 😢

What a special man. Love and admire this man so much. A friend above friendship 🐐

Unbelievable man Kevin, Rob would be so proud and grateful for all you did❤

Rugby League doeas not get the credit it deserves. We are a family. Rob was one of us.

It was also a privilege for Rob to know Kevin Sinfield ❤

Poor guy i lost my best friend at 32 just a few years ago

RIP Rob. Thanks for the memories ❤️

R.i.p Rob so sad,what a legend and fighter he was x
