This may sound stupid and you may laugh at me as i didnt know the lad etc


I feel so upset about this, this game to me is such a close sport in terms of fans, players, clubs etc (I know sometimes its not shown on the boards, but ive seen it in St Helens this weekend) and for somebody to lose their life playing it is so heartbreaking

My heart goes out to the Family and to everyone connected to Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, a horrible last 6 months for the club

RIP Leon

I was just saying the same Loz.

It's absoloutely gutting TBH.

RIP Leon.

terrible news - condolences to leon's friends and family - what an awful few months for wakefield.

I would just like to offer my deepest condolences to his friends and family.
Such a tragic thing to happen
R.I.P

It doesn't sound stupid at all i think a lot will agree with you. The fact it happened on the pitch and to one so young makes it even worse somehow and I admit I had a tear in my eye when the official statement was read.

News like this certainly puts things into perspective.

Above & Beyond - not stupid at all, I feel exactly the same.

Absolutely tragic & I feel so sad for Leon's family & also the Wakefield club & their fans.

RIP Leon

Just wanted to offer my sincere condolences to all Leons friends and family. I am sure that the whole rugby league family feels the same.

This is desperately sad news. Our players play a hard, hard game and risk so much for the rugby league we love. My thoughts are with young Leon, his family and team mates.

so sad to hear about leon our thoughts are with his family and friends
may he rest in peace and rise in glory

At least he’ll be in heaven with your Freddy Cat now

In total shock at what has happened to the young Leon Walker, At round about the same age myself it puts things into perspective...
R.I.P
A great loss not only to his family and friends but to the Rugby League community as a whole...

Played for Wakefield against Leeds on Boxing Day, so again puts things right in to perspective.

A very sad day.

My sympathies.

Events like this put everything in perspective.

Another sad day for Rugby League, and especially Wakefield and their fans.
What the feck have they done to deserve such bad luck.

Well done to the RFL for doing the right thing in calling the game off.

I'm sure a minutes silence next week will be immaculately observed at all RL grounds.

if it isnt, the vermin should be banned for life from all RL grounds
