R.I.P Terry Newton

Post by Colorado Gull »

Rugby League & former international rugby league player. He played for Wakefield Trinity Wildcats, Bradford Bulls, Wigan Warriors and Leeds Rhinos. And had 15 caps for great britian. Found hanged at a house today. Very sad news. Thoughts to his family and friends. :cry:

They were talking about him on the radio last night on my way home from work. Didn't realise he was the one who was baned for 2 years for taking body building drugs.

Never nice to hear, shame no one picked up on it earlier.

yeah meant to start a thread myself seeing as i watched him play for wakefield trinity wildcats......... :Oops:

terrible news.

i know someone from from the bradford bulls spoke to him the day before he was found.

apparently although he was running a pub,and apparently his wife told him that was it and wanted a divorce.

he even put on facebook that "this is the end"

very sad.

a great player and top bloke who always had time for the fans.

RIP Terry Newton.
