After Burrow and Weir, Now Lewis Moody — Is Rugby Slowly Killing Its Own Heroes?

Lewis Moody

By Irman Connor | Sports Watch

The heartbreaking news that former England captain Lewis Moody has been diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND) has shaken the rugby community once again. We’ve barely come to terms with the loss of Rob Burrow and Doddie Weir, two men whose battles with this cruel disease inspired millions, and yet here we are, facing another reminder that something may be deeply wrong in the sport we love. How many more players must suffer before we confront the uncomfortable question — is rugby itself contributing to this growing tragedy?

The link between repeated head impacts and neurodegenerative conditions like MND remains under intense debate. Officially, the science is “inconclusive”, but anyone who’s watched the brutal collisions of modern professional rugby can’t help but wonder. 

Lewis Moody played for England during their 2003 Rugby World cup which England won.

It’s not just the crunching tackles or scrums collapsing under pressure — it’s the sheer frequency of knocks, the culture of “playing on”, and the pride in shrugging off concussions as badges of honour. We celebrate toughness, but at what cost?

Helmets and mouthguards do little against the unseen damage caused by the brain rattling inside the skull. Rugby’s governing bodies have introduced stricter head-injury protocols, longer stand-downs, and concussion spotters, but critics argue it’s still not enough.

If we want to preserve the sport and protect those who give everything for it, we must stop treating brain trauma as an occupational hazard. Lewis Moody’s diagnosis isn’t just a personal tragedy — it’s a wake-up call for rugby’s conscience.
