Bedford Roughyed 8,090 Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 Very sad news. RIP Quote With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to post Share on other sites

Ivarr the Boneless 267 Posted February 23 Report Share Posted February 23 I saw Matt at a few Broncos games after the injury. He was always smiling. A remarkable man. Condolences to his family and friends. I hope his Broncos team mates from that day are ok too. I spoke to one a few days later, they were not in a good place. This may bring back memories. Likewise best wishes to the Halifax lad involved in the tackle. Matt's team mate said he was in an awful state, though he was not to blame. It may also bring back memories for him.
