Very sad to hear of the loss of a rugby legend - Jonah Lomu has passed away aged just 40 - he was truly one of the greats of the game and probably the blue-print for the modern rugby player.
Rest in peace Jonah, you are now with the first fifteen.

Only 40 - what a sad loss to the game.
Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
Gosh, that is a shock, only 40 I remember watching him open mouth as he just stormed through players.
Very sad to hear this news today.
For all we Rugby fans he will be remembered as one of the Greats in all senses of the word.
RIP.

Sad indeed! One of THE great All Blacks.
Apparently he had been battling a rare Kidney disease for some years & which was the cause of his early retirement from the game.
Bad, but better than what I was expecting to hear -- apparently, rugby is also having problems with CTE....Originally Posted by gully_raker

An astonishing player and arguably Rugby Union's first global superstar - such a tragic loss.
Never Knowingly Undergunned !!
A huge loss to the world of Rugby.
Watching an extended interview with him right now - down to earth bloke, as well as a rugby colossus.
