In a park? Jesus, that sounds rough. Sad situation whatever happened. The kind of player that draws people to the game in the first place.

What a bloody shame. Mental illness is fucking awful. My thoughts are with him, wherever he is now, and with his friends and family.

tragic - mercurial at times, played with a spirit sadly lacking in parts today.
"A witness saw him climb the roof of a disused building at Saint-Cloud park, near Paris, on Tuesday before falling", officials say. - (beeb.)
RIP.

When he dropped that ball over the try line against Italy and blew heavily out of his mouth causing a tremble of his lips the girl stood next to me in the pub made an outstanding sound in response to the thought of lips moving like that. Cheers Christophe.

Personified everything we all love about French rugby, small in stature like a bantam cockerel in a farmyard but strutted about like he owned the place. Great winger and 99 was one of the great test matches. RIP

His bttle with depression were well known, he locked himself in his hotel room for much of the 99 world cup only coming out to play games, poor guy was destroyed from depresion. A total legend of the game - just gutted about this

RIP - one of the greatest

This is utterly tragic. A brilliant player who epitomised the ethos of rugby being a game for all sizes. At his best, imperious.

RIP, gone far too soon.
