RIP , shocking news!

He did suffer from kidney problems for many years, a huge man with huge talent

RIP A great player an icon for rugby raised the profile of the sport. Inspired so many people to play rugby.

Absolute legend. Both his career and life were cut short. RIP.

Truly a legend. Unstoppable on the Rugby field. And a true gentleman on and off the field by all accounts, Now dead at forty from “rare and serious kidney condition”

A legend and great ambassador for the sport. R.I.P.

Truly a legend. Unstoppable on the Rugby field, but cut down by disease at the age of forty.

Unbelivable player and raised the bar. R.I.P.

That man was incredible on the playing field. As Steve says... unstoppable. Sad news indeed.

RIP

Really sad news proper gent would take half a team to TRY to stop him . Was on dialysis waiting for another transplant according to BBC
RIP

First i heard of it, shocking news, so sad. RIP

Very sad news
What a legend
Rip

Very sad he was a great player R.I.P

very sad news he took rugby to a new level as you could only
watch in awe as he blew people away with his power and speed.

Star of the 1995 Rugby World Cup.
Have heard it said a couple of times recently that he marginally failed a fitness test(probably due to the kidney problem) in the run up to that World Cup and was dropped. The coach was however persuaded to change his mind.

What a player in his day , a real sporting hero , will sadly be missed ... R.I.P Jonah Lomu gone to early :(

Impossible man to stop on the field and a delight to watch when he got the ball, A gentleman too by all accounts, RIP Jonah

An uncle killed in a gang related incident and Lomu said, he himself had been stabbed twice.
