Sadly missed

The rugby world is still trying to come to terms with the tragic news coming from France today of the death of New Zealand legend Jerry Collins and his wife. The All-Black was killed when his car was in collision with a bus and there has been literally thousands of tributes to the flanker today from the world of rugby and beyond. And tonight we may have seen the best of the lot as Chris Masoe paid a wonderful fitting tribute to the player as he ran out for the Top 14 semi final between his Toulon side and Stade Francais. Collins was known for his bleached hair, and Masoe decided it was only fitting the pay tribute to his former colleague in a style that the forward would appreciate https://twitter.com/TheRugbyDrum/status/606900858207518721 https://twitter.com/ScrumESPN/status/606908190505213952
