Don't know how many of you follow Rugby League, if any, but coming from Wigan I'm obviously big on it. And it is with great sadness that today we learnt of the death of ex-Wigan **** Terry Newton. Terry was a true great of the modern game and in my opinion embodied the role that the modern RL **** plays on the field.
He'd been battling against his addictions to drugs for a while and was banned for two years in February and had his Wakefield Trinity Wildcats contract cancelled. It seemed he was getting back on his feet recently but he was found dead today in Orrell, in what looks like suicide by hanging.
R.I.P Terry Newton.

He was a God on the playing field, he really was. And by all accounts a top bloke off it.
