damn thats **** news to hear,
not only did it sound like he had a promising future but its a real kick in the guts to the Reds who have already had more than their share of bad news lately.

i wonder how he died?

This is a massive thing to hit rugby.

I had only seen glimpses of him, and from what I'd seen he looked very good, and his pedigree is nothing short of fantastic.

From what people are saying about him, more importantly, he sounded like a great guy.

Does anyone know how he died?? In all the reports, it just says he's body was found dead.....

 

[dr nick]

sounds to me like he might have OD'd, otherwise they would have said something along the lines of 'heart condition' you would think.

r.i.p young man

What a loss. He was an up and coming youngster in the Reds ranks and had great potential to make a mark.

 

[Crooked Rain]

Suicide was given as the reason in the papers this morning.

Sad stuff.
