All the best Richard, here's hoping you can get things sorted and return to health.
Take care mate!

Given that it is highly likely that Richard will need (or could well have already had) steroid medication, to treat the inflammation, one would hope that if Richard is able to return (

) to playing the RL will be pragmatic and flexible in regard to its rules on drug taking.

Good luck Richard. Hope to see you pulling on a Wakefield shirt again some time in the near future.

I also hope that this is an end to the rotten luck you guys are having at the moment.

All the best Richard for a speedy recovery you big dirty swine!!!

The process of having it diagnosed is extremely invasive so the bloke's probably already been through hell.

All the best to Richard and I'm sure he'll be back playing very soon. Hopefully they'll find a controlling treatment that works for him quickly.

Fierce rivalries aside, I really don't know what you guys at Wakey have done to deserve the things you've had to suffer over the last twelve months. Hopefully there are more positive times ahead.

At least now you have a diagnosis you can move forward and start to build up your strength through diet and medication. I am reliably told that Steve Redgrave has the disease and he won 5 golds.'" you are quite correct along with several other famous people crohn-colitis.hu/eng/famous-people-with-ibd.php

What with this, Adam & Jamie you can see the team rising to the occasion and giving Leeds a good run for their money. Top of the league come Friday night!!!????

Best of luck with getting on top of it Richard.

From a Hull FC fan.

been saying it all week but getting shot down in flames, Wakey win by 4

That is terrible news. With Watene gone Moore was going to be our main Prop. His intensity gave our lads a boost. This is a huge blow. Get well soon Richie!!!
