Very sad, RIP, it's a horrible disease to have.

[Hibees1973]

Tragedy.

RIP big man.

[Sir David Gray]

Really sorry to hear that, he had such a positive attitude about his devastating diagnosis and did some amazing work to raise awareness of and raise money for one of the cruellest of illnesses.

The end was sadly inevitable but it's tragic nonetheless.

[Mcbizz1998]

Terrible news. Had a feeling at the All Blacks game that he wouldn’t be with us for long. A great player and an even better man by all accounts.

[Golden Bear]

So sorry to hear this dreadful news. RIP big fellah, you put up one helluva fight both on and off the rugby park.

[The dalmeny]

Sad news, puts things into perspective, thoughts are with the family

I lost my Mum to MND in May. Doddie has been a huge source of inspiration for me, he was one of my rugby heroes too.

I'm struggling to hold back the tears.

RIP Legend.

Sitting here genuinely gutted

A devastating debilitating terrible disease

Sincerest deepest condolences to Big Doddie’s family and friends

That's upsetting news. A great sportsman, a great character and a great Scot.

Nice guy and what an inspiration to others. Think it's fair to say we've lost a great Scottish giant.

It’s quite something for him to surpass his sporting achievements with his amazing post diagnosis achievements, deserves to be long remembered. RIP.

Sorry to hear that. Hope you're ok.Thanks, I'm doing alright. My old man isn't as good understandably so.

Doddie was genuinely a hero of mine and that was only made more so considering. I was at Murrayfield at the New Zealand game and I'm glad his family will have that memory.

His legacy is huge.

I heard about the illness a few years back when Phil Stephenson sadly got it and passed. He was the first sportsman I know who got it. Seeing a big prop forward wasting away was awful.

I remember speaking to him before it got bad. Worst illness ever heard of.

Give your dad a bell and make him smile.

[heretoday]

Didn't make it to December the big chap. Tremendous individual. Brave.

[JoeT]

Sad news. What a hero. Love to his family and friends

[Eyrie]

The end may have been inevitable but I was still saddened when I saw the headline.

RIP.
