This is indeed very tragic, Wakefield have had more than there fair share of tragedy.

My thoughts are with his family, friends, team mates and the Wakey Club.

RIP

Shocking news

My thoughts are with his family and the club (they've been through a heck of a lot recently)

RIP Leon

you do not expect to go to a rugby match and see someone die on the pitch and especially at his age as he is the same age as me. It is not the best way to die but at least he was enjoying himself before he was suddenly taken from the rugby world.

It's still quite raw tbh, another RL brother leaving before the party is over.
The fact that he turned 20 a few months ago and I turn 20 in a few months is quite frightening and I don't mind admitting I shed a little tear on Sunday as the story filtered through.

RIP big man, we'll see you one day for a big game of Touch and Pass.
