Such sad news, another tragic loss for Wakefield. Such a young lad, our heartfelt sympathy to his family at this very sad time.

Just know the whol RL family are thinking of you at this time.

Hold up homie. If you're feeling froggy, Jump!

Got to feel for the family and wakey as a club.

Maybe they as a club need to review their training methods to see if anything they could do to prevent such tragedies. They've certainly been unlucky this year.

I'm still laughing at Cas!!!

That's quite a statement to make about changing training methods. Adam passed away training pre season & Leon passed away due to a tackle. I think the club does everything it can - but sadly these things do happen.

Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.

People making comments about "training methods" should desist immediately. They're ill informed and should await the verdict of the cause of death.

Appalling lack of respect really.

I don't usually post on these threads but as I now have my deepest sympathies to Leon's family, the Wakefield club and his team mates who must be very distraught.

Fully agree G1, poker certainly has some strange ideas.

All thoughts are with Leon's family and friends.

Don't over read the statement boss. Player safety is paramount and i fully expect the club will be already reviewing things from technique, medical health, training intensity levels etc..
