Rugby union legend Jonah Lomu dies aged 40

[AkydefGoldberg]

Sad news considering wasn't too long ago seeing his tweets at the WC last month. Didn't realise his health issues.

But not being a rugby fan at all, even I - and I imagine others in a similiar position - would recognise Lomu if they saw a picture of him. I think I would have done a Gary Linekar and shit my pants if I was faced with Lomu rampaging towards me full throttle but also he seemed a nice bloke off the pitch, not making his on field persona all nasty - did it with a smile.

RIP

Union's first 'star' player, very sad news indeed.

RIP Jonah.
