Made by BBC Breakfast with support from the Burrow family, the documentary covers Rob's life on and off the field and was personally signed off by Rob before he passed away on Sunday aged 41.
The 45-minute documentary include's Rob's final message that he recorded knowing it would be played out after he passed away.
I hope one day we find a cure and live in a world free of MND.
By the time that you watch this I will no longer be here.
I am just a lad from Yorkshire who got to live out his dream of playing Rugby League
As a father of three young children I would never want any family to have to go through what my family have since my diagnosis.
I hope I have left a mark on the disease.
I hope it shows to live in the moment.
I hope you find inspiration from the whole story.
My final message to you is whatever your personal battle be brave and face it.
Every single day is precious.
Don’t waste a moment.
In a world full of adversity we must still dare to dream.
Rob Burrow, over and out.
