    No single body this side of Webb Ellis did more for the popularity of the sport.

    And although annoyed the Underwoods made money off of this, I found it amusing, showing the two sides of Lomu's Rugby persona: his ferociousness, but also prepared to be the butt of a joke:

    There are a lot of great athletes, but how many athletes can say they changed the game?

    I'm completely shocked. Lomu was a force of nature, a wrecking ball on the pitch who forever changed the game of rugby union. Never has there been a man of 6'5" and 19 stone who had such good hands, such good balance and who could run the 100m in just over ten seconds.

    Nobody has a bad word to say about the guy off the pitch either.

    A true legend, rest in peace Jonah. The game of rugby that they play up in heaven has just got a lot harder!!

    RIP

    He was a humble guy for one so great at his sport.
