what a proud family, and for his father to be strong enough to do the interview, immense

I hope the celtic lad heeds his words and continues to play on, the offer of wanting to meet him will help to heal the trauma that they have gone through,

I didn't go down to the match because of the cost and time it was played, I would now like to go down to pay respects to Leon and also show support to the Celtics who have only just as a club been born into the rugby community that we all pull together at these times

That was a heart wrenching video and I thought what Leon's Dad said about the Celtic player was just amazing. They were two very brave people.

That was unbearable to watch. A very humbling experience and a lesson in dignity, humanity and forgiveness. Anyone who has posted even the briefest of messages to this wonderful family can see just how important your words have been. The greatest game played by and supported by very special people.
Thank You

The bravery and strength shown by Leon's Dad was truly impressive and he is a somewhat stronger man than i am.

I do hope the Celtic player does continue his career, and what was said shows what rugby league is... a family.

My thoughts are with the Family and everyone connected to Leon in one way or another. God Bless

My God, I am pumped after watching that. Remarkable man

That is a remarkable video, how can a man and a dad, who has lost his son in such tragic circumstances care more about the young lad in celtic then much else, he is a tremendous guy, and i wish him all the best.

What an inspiration.

Full credit to leons dad & his little sister also, it must be very hard for them all.
It would'nt surprise me if the celtic player was'nt there on Friday with Leons family. If the lad was up to it.

R.I.P Leon.

what an absolute inspiration that guy is, one of the most heart wrenchings things ive seen in a long time, this really is the greatest game of all because of the great people involved with it.

How selfless of Leon's father to be thinking of the Celtic player when he could be forgiven for only thinking about himself and his family. Amazing.
