So sad. Strength to him.

He was with us aged 22. Just before he left for the Rebels.

On the local news here in the West.

He looks absolutely shattered in the vid and its quite heart breaking.

Jesus, poor kid is in a really bad place.  I hope he has the support he needs.

I think it’s important to focus on his message here, showing it’s okay to be vulnerable and important to share your story as it may help others.

If the world is more kind and understanding of everyone, people may not be under such pressure and stress in their lives.

It shows incredible bravery and I want him to receive everything he wants in life.

Respect for Danny.

His world was/is wider than most.

His talent remains wonderful to behold.

The shit doesn't matter, Danny. The talent and performance is what counts.

This +1

Its not until you even glimpse the effects - and I've only glimpsed - that you realise how far a little kindness would have gone....

Almost lost for words after watching that. What a huge demonstration of courage and strength of character from Danny.

That takes some serious courage. What a guy. Really sad to learn that he was in such a dark place whilst still a young player at Wasps. Good that he is now comfortable with who he is. The message is one we could probably all do with remembering at times.
