Moody is touched by support following diagnosis
South Wales Echo
|November 06, 2025
FORMER England captain Lewis Moody has been touched by the “outpouring of love and support” which followed his motor neurone disease diagnosis.
-
The 2003 World Cup winner revealed last month he had the incurable muscle-wasting condition which caused the death of fellow rugby players Doddie Weir, Rob Burrow and Joost van der Westhuizen.
Moody (pictured) was given a warm welcome by everyone at Allianz Stadium when he carried the match ball on to the pitch ahead of England’s Test against Australia on Saturday, while a GoFundMe page has been set up to help support the former Leicester flanker and his family.
