| Absolutely gutted to hear this news. He was a Legend and superstar at Leigh. I actually spoke to him last season in the Legends bar at the LSV, an absolute gentleman. I enjoyed many a game watching him home and away. You will be sadly missed. My thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family. RIP Des.

| Rest in peace Desmond Llpyd Drummond.
Absolutely devastated.
I didn't see that coming. You think your heroes will live forever and in my mind this fella will.
He was my RL hero before he even signed for warrington due to his exploits on superstars.
Whilst he was still at Leigh my dad knew a couple of dessies mates and he came home from work one day with a giant signed poster of Des playing for GB and a signed testimonial brochure from his Leigh testimonial.
Can't remember the number of times I read that testimonial brochure from front to back.
When we signed him it was like all my birthdays and Christmases had come at once.
My thoughts go out to his family and friends..
Legend

| Oh man couldn’t believe when I saw the title of this thread, one of my all time favourite players at Wire and had many a chat with him, absolutely blown away reading of his passing, watching him run at defenders was awesome and must have been terrifying for opponents.

| Really sad news.
Loved watching Des play at Leigh and he put in a good shift when he went to Wire with Woody too. They don’t make them like that anymore. Gutted.

| Time steals everything and too few of my heroes remain.
Charismatic, exciting and a genuine star, I consider myself very fortunate to have seen him play. Gòodnight Dessie.

| Been keeping an eye on sky sports news since I heard the news expecting something to pop up.
Drummond captained Great Britain and when he signed for us was the all time most capped GB player with something like 47 caps.
TV star in the 80' s on superstars and SSN have not even mentioned it.
Yet some yank that plays a game on the other side of the ocean retires and they are all over it.
But Ifrom Sky sports perspective the split from rugby union actually happened in 1996
Amazing
