To be fair guys lets not make this about anyone else. Its a sad day for all involved.

RIP to the lad, very bad news.

Anyone know if he used to play winger/centre in his real early days?

Ive read somewhere that he took a hit to the head in a tackle, got up played the ball then collapsed. Not sure how true it is. Also seen it reported as a heart attack.

Good to see i wasnt the only one who felt a little choked up about it, stopped me in my tracks.

Makes our petty squabling over the last couple of days seem so pointless doesn't it.

RIP.

Certainly does.

RIP

Rugby League always stick together when needed!

R.I.P

I flicked Sky on to watch the final 30 mins of the Celtic-Wakey game and saw us playing Saints in the Grand Final. When they said the game had been postponed I assumed the standard flooded pitch/floodlight failure etc. type scenario and settled in to watch the game. When the annoucement came through I was stunned. I went from the huge high of watching the GF replay and all the memories it brought back to thinking about the young lad. I hate to imagine the sort of effect it would have on any family.

Thoughts go out to his friends and family and also to everyone at Wakey and their fans.

Can only really say what has already been mentioned.

Like always, Rugby league fans will stick together.

R.I.P and thoughts are with friends and family.

A few of my mates were on the same team as him when it happened tonight, dread to think how they're feeling now.

I would imagine the journey home will be the longest trip they have ever made.

I think everyone needs to spare a thought for the players of both teams having to witness a friend and colleague being involved in such a tragic event.

its all been said about the rl family
i cant add any more .
deepest sympathy to Leons family

It is a real tragedy and a terrible thing to happen. My thoughts are also with the family and friends who have to get over this somehow.

A really sad day and another blow to Wakefield.

Awful news.

RIP.

I just want to echo everything that's been said.

RIP Leon

A sad tragic day for his family, loved ones and friends, the Wildcats team and fans and all people involved in Rugby league. This is shocking and heartbreaking and makes you take a step back. We go through life arguing, bickering and in today's society a lot of people not caring about anybody else. This makes us all realise how fragile life is. The rugby league community is coming together at this sad time.

I have always realised in watching Rugby league that the players take very hard knocks and put themselves on the line every time they play. Nothing more can be said. My thoughts are with his family and friends. R.I.P..
