All the best to Merritt, I really enjoyed him as a player despite hating the team he was on.

 

[soc123_au]

Sad to hear. I hope he gets through it.

 

[moffla]

Doesn’t sound too promising but we can only hope he pulls through.

 

[SpaceMonkey]

Gee that’s not good. Hope he pulls through from whatever it is that got him.
if it turns out to be head injury/concussion related it’s going to reinforce the importance of the HIA system.

 

[RedVee_8]

Very sad news.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Sounds very bad
Best wishes to Nathan and his family

The 40-year-old is believed to have had a devastating reaction to consuming prescribed pain medication.

It is understood he is on life support and hooked up to a dialysis machine.

Merritt’s condition is listed as serious.

 

[some11]

Too young to be on chronic pain meds. Hopefully he didn't OD but it sounds like he may have.

best of luck to young nathan
you hear about players needing an injection to get out there and play
is it worth it to see your favourite player, but at what cost ?
all i can do is wish you well
a tough and fast little player
i enjoyed watching you, even from your "enemy's" perpective
get well soon man
