My mate works with the lad's dad, can't even start to imagine what the family is going through right now. Every parent's worst nightmare. Thoughts are with them and I gave my lad an extra hug last night.

It shows just how fragile life can be.
A normal day ending in tragedy for some lad with most of his life seemingly in front of him.

The Wakey schools play a lot of rugby.  I see the kids all the time covered in mud and loving it.  Such a shame.

It is so upsetting that such a vibrant life can be taken so early. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
