RIP

Yeah, just had a look myself. Obviously he didn't notice the sticky, fair enough, still no need for the outburst, and even now, not even as much as a apology for the uncalled for outburst on their board.

Condolences to Terry,s family and friends R I P

Extremely tragic my condolences to his family and friends.

regardless of whether he was the opposition player you loved to hate, the guy you liked to see mixing it with the aussies, the guy who got a drugs ban, at the end of the day he was still a human being just like the rest of us, and I hope noone on here ever feels whatever it is that made Terry feel that desperate. RIP fella.

Gutted, been in his pub and drank with him and he was a nice bloke. Horrible news R.I.P Tez x

Awful news , condolences to his family and friends.

Tragic , he was only 31. A professional RL players career is short and usually then they have their whole lives in front of them and great memories to look back on , Terry made a mistake and for lots of people , including me at times, he was a sort of pantomime bad guy. It's shocking to think he felt he had no one to turn to and opted to end his life in such a way. In my life I've known two people who have chosen to act this way , it comes as a shock because although you know they're going through hard times you rarely get a warning.
The transition from full time player, to life outside the game, especially a top ranking one is hard. You hear lots of them say "since a was a kid, it's all I've ever known " It's a time for his fellow professionals , friends and family to mourn and fans to reflect maybe and not be so judgemental or personal to the people who play and coach in this wonderful game. Brings us all down to earth times like these.

RIP terry newton,

Been out today and a good drink, but this news seriously shocked/upset me. Didn't think he was the type of bloke to do this, just shows how fragile he must have been. RIP Terry Newton!!!

R.I.P Terry Newton, my condolences to his family and friends.

there

as a player on the opposing team people wasnt big fans of him i think it was cause of the threat he caused with ball in hand but with the skill he had i would of had him at salford

R.I.P Terry Newton

I mean this in a very respectful way, Terry Newton as a competitor had some real dog in him and every team needs one of these type of players.

RIP Terry

a few years back I was having a drink with him and a few other Rugby League players, and he was drinking Guinness, but what got me was the number of times he went to the loo, in the end we timed it as every 17 minutes. We laughed and joked how fit you had to be to be in Terry's p155 cycle, and how he came on for short spurts, happy times, so sad he choose what he did, we will never know what went through his mind and how much help he was getting, but it is a big loss to Rugby league, I know I have called him in the past, but i thought we missed out when he went to Wakefield and we should have tried to get him, but I am sure some senior people in Rugby league knew about Terry's problems and these people passed on this info to certain people and not others.

A great loss
