I remember talking to a Kiwi once about the rugby who didn't know Lomu had died 2 years after he did.

Terrible disease,poor him,RIP...third time I hear of MND and second time it's related to rugby news. Makes me think that it can be caused somehow by specific injuries,or maybe not caused but the risk is getting higher for those who have more hard injuries in young age (like in rugby)

And now Paul 'The Judge' Rendall. I knew he was suffering, and he was a bit older than Doddie, but still very sad news.
I went to the Eng v Sco RWC semi final in which Weir started for Sco and Rendall was on the English bench. Horrible to think of them both now gone from this terrible disease.
RIP Judge.
