My favourite rugby player
is Julian Savea. He plays for the All Blacks and his position is wing. He
is my favourite player because he plays well. He doesn’t drop the ball and he
always shares the ball. He always gets a try and he represents New Zealand. He
is also my favourite player because he inspires me like no one else can. He was
born on the 7th of August 1990 (25 years old).
Sadly one of the greatest All Black players of all time has passed on, at the age of 40. John Mayhew confirmed that Jonah Lomu tragically died this morning around 8 or 9 o'clock.
Jonah battled kidney disorder since the end of 1995. He was then diagnosed with nephrotic syndrome . During 2004 he had a kidney implant.
It is probably a struggle for Jonah's family . Jonah's family would be devastated from the news of the All Blacks legend's death. His family are asking for privacy as this is a hard time for them . He was not only a good rugby player but he is a good person.
Room 11's thoughts are with Jonah's family and we hope they get through this rough time.
