Very sad news god bless

Dreadful news. RIP Danny

Very sad, condolences to family and friends. RIP Danny.

Very sad indeed.RIP Danny Jones.

Devastatingly sad news, to lose a young man in the prime of his life, with such a young family. Am utterly heartbroken to hear this and my thoughts and prayers are with his family and friends.



To think we get worked up about winning or losing a game, when tragedies like this put everything into perspective. The fact that he was such a talented, skilful, respected, well-loved and admired player, are absolutely no consolation, when a young guy ends up giving his life, for the game he loves.



RIP Danny Jones. Total respect for you as a man and player. And heartfelt condolences to your family. You will be sadly missed.

Tragic

I've just read elsewhere that he leaves 5 month old twins. Can't imagine what the family are going through.

RIP Danny Jones

P.S. Is this the lad who played SO for 'Fax against us in the Trains Final at Blackpool?

Heart breaking. So, so sad!

Absolutely shocking. We all expect our players come off the field with bumps, bruises and injuries. No one expects their players to enter the field of play and never come home to their loved ones. Thoughts and prayers go out to Danny's family and to the keighley club on this tragic day.

Speechless.

RIP, young man.

Yes that's right. He kicked the winning drop goal against Fev in the semi final. I remember watching it in Yates's in Leigh and you'd have thought Leigh had scored.

Tragic news. Players really do put their bodies on the line for our entertainment but no one ever thinks anything like this could happen. Should be a minutes silence before every game in the country next week.

Very sad news. My thoughts are with his family at this terrible time.

And a bucket collection too. His family's gonna need it .... RIP Danny ....

Just donated. Hope the response of the RL family is some comfort for Danny's family, however small it may be.

Just nice to be able to help..Such a tradegy.

I can't stop thinking about this, and every tribute I read has me in tears. I didn't know Danny or even know that much about him as a rugby player but the thought of his poor wife with those tiny twins waiting for him to come home only or even worse, watching what happened from the sidelines just breaks my heart.

It's just too awful for words.

My thoughts exactly Mish. Nearly everytime I'm not doing anything/concentrating, I think about what has happened to poor Danny and his family.

Thanks to everyone for their support.

Dispute been quite ill at present I was able to get over to Keighley yesterday to see the tribute and is was heartbreaking.

So so so sad.

I knew little to nothing about Danny, but what I do know from playing the sport is that it takes a certain type of physical & mental toughness.

We must remember that the vast majority of Rugby League players play for the love of the game & maybe a few quid here & there.

I will be giving to Danny's cause because it is the right thing to do for me.
