Hell I suddenly feel very mortal. A first class rugby player, dead all too soon at 49.

    A good man to have a drink and swap a yarn with. He will be missed.

    As I said on another thread, he gladly gave time to give us some scrum and lineout tips for several practices when I was in sixth form. Clearly loved the game and I was very impressed by him and how down to earth he was. Too young.

    He also leaves behind a lovely family. His wife Cathy would be one of the most divine women I know, so kind. And three beautiful children.

    This is all so cruel.
