| Massive shame, I wouldn't wish such a situation on anyone, regardless of how I may have felt about him when he was playing. If there's a silence at Old Trafford for him, I sincerely hope all the Saints supporters can be respectful.
Thoughts go out to his family.

| How sad. He was a talented player and a great servant to Wigan. Not one of my favourites but I could appreciate him as a player. Made a mistake and has suffered for it. Deepest condolences to all his family and friends. RIP.

Rugby League is a sport that desperately needs to expand its geographical supporter base and its player base. This imperative means that all other requirements are secondary until this is done.
All power in the game should be with governing bodies, especially international governing bodies.
Without these actions we will remain a minor sport internationally and nationally.: |
|
| RIP Terry
Made his mistakes, but who hasn't?
Hope the RFL go for a minute's applause to avoid the prospect of late-comers, drunks or just idiots breaking the silence

simpsons/simp048.gif I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!
Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

| Very, very sad.
Condolences to his family and loved ones.
RIP Terry.
Our sportmen and women are sometimes put under tremendous pressure and times like this just put sport and life in perspective.

That was one of my first thoughts after the shock at the news. It's a recipe for disaster, a player who Saints hated and who hated Saints. He repeatedly tried to hurt Saints players no matter who he was playing for and his on and off field actions were horrible at times. BUT for all the pantomime villainy no one wants to see a person die like this. It's horrible news. I just fear for the final, there will be people who have drunk all day going to the game and given the opposition I just hope our fans can conduct themselves properly at a Grand Final for once.

| There should be a minutes applause and if not it should be actively turned into one by those in attendance.
Appreciation in this way would be best for what he has given to rugby league and also avoid giving the ed up, abusive sorts the stage to spoil any minutes silence. I'm not having a go at those that get drunk, I have a few at the game, some would say too many but I would never think of booing or abusing a players memory at a minutes silence.

10603.jpg Is it true that Richard Agar's favorite movie of all time is Groundhog Day or does he just generally like the same boring s**t day after day, season after season?:10603.jpg |

| Unbelievable
Like many, I didn't like the guy as a player, but that doesn't stop me feeling sympathy for both him and his family. Very, very sad news.
RIP Terry

| A minute's applause would be the best solution - if you're scum and want to boo, nobody can stop you unfortunately, but the proper, decent, respectful rugby league supporters of whichever team will drown you out. Don't clap if you don't want to, but at least be respectful.
