R.I.P Jonah Lomu
All Blacks legend Jonah Lomu has died, aged 40, according to the New Zealand rugby team's former doctor John Mayhew.
"It's a obviously a very difficult time for Jonah's family. He's a great rugby player and a great person. It's a terrible tragedy," Mayhew told TV3.
Lomu battled kidney disorders since the end of 1995 when he was diagnosed with nephritic syndrome. He had a kidney transplant in 2004.

Re: R.I.P Jonah Lomu
Yeah I met him a few times and he was the most humble person you could ever meet.
A true legend of the game and a great ambassador for rugby.
