I agree, Joey.

What I will say though, is that in his 41 short years, he achieved so much in his chosen career path, and he seemed to have a family that truly loved him.

MND can't take those things away from him.

Jason Cundy was discussing him this morning on TalkSport.. he was being very serious and respectful ( opposite to normal) but then referred to him as ‘Burrows’ (just used his surname)

Kinda shocked me tbh

He's a year younger than me.

His death is so sad and tragic.

Tbf to Jason Cundy, he might be one of those that thinks that calling strangers by their surname is more respectful.

To play devil's advocate.

His team, the Leeds Rhinos, next game is against my team Hull FC at the KC stadium.

I will be there.

Tune in to watch how the Rugby League community shows its respects.

Also tune in this Saturday for the Rugby League challenge cup final between Warrington and Wigan at Wembley. There's bound to be some great moments of tributes to the little man..
