in respect : Mon Mar 23, 2009 5:29 pm  

I normally sit at the computer buzzing through the results doing the predictions, just trying to keep this forum all joined in with the fun,
last night I have never felt so low, and for one of our players that I haven't met and just seen him once in action.
Deeply sad by his tragic loss I just don't think its right to post this weeks predictions.
I'm a very emotional person and I'm even welling up as I am typing this,
I have ask me friend Chris for advice and I'm sure he will back me up, I think we should start the predictions after this week games, after we have all paid respects to his family in the minutes silence on friday night against St Helens.
We can never forget our fallen hero's
please except my apologizes if anybody thinks any different

Its hard isn't it because life goes on, but I think people have been deeply affected by this. I know I have as at times like this, rugby league is a family, but I cannot even imagine what you guys are going through.

I support your decision even though it doesn't affect me!

I agree. Some things are more important in life. I predict with certainty that we'll all come together in numbers on Friday to show our respects to Leon and give our team support in these awful times.

Your call snowie.

You know we will back you whatever!

im hoping that the boys of wakefiled play 110% for leon and even better come away with a win.

If I may say something as an outsider,I felt just like you when I heard the news.The loss of a loved one is always hard to bear,and when things like this happen,you can`t help but sympathise.My thoughts are with all concerned.

No need to apologise, snowie. Your actions are completely understandable. Any person who is brave enough to publicly show such emotion is definately big-hearted in my opinion.

A young life is far more important than a few points, no problem snowie.
