RIP Sean.

Yeah agree, photo and caption were not required.

Terrible news, it seems anyone who knew him will be taking this news quite hard, particularly how young he was.

RIP Sean

Very very sad news, RIP he was far two young.

If news ltd couldn't have found a more appropriate photo to go with in that article, they shouldn't have published a photo at all.

Very poor taste IMHO, but then again this is News Ltd we are talking about.

Condolences to his family and friends, and all that knew him

R.I.P

 

[Gordy]

Agree with everyone, far too young. R.I.P Sean.

Any word yet on exactly what happened?

 

[Apocalyptic Eel]

I'm pretty sure his family don't want the cause of his sad death to be plastered over forums.

Lets all just remember him for the great work he did in the NRL

RIP SEAN BURNS.

You will be missed. But not forgotten.

I meant no disrespect to Sean or his family, was just curious given he was quite fit and active and still quite young, i apologise if i offended anyone. RIP Sean.

 

[Gronk]

I'm not going to rock the boat here, but my opinion is that it's actually very important. Think about it.

 

[Jodeci]

It's not Gronk.

It wasn't related to his job so let's just leave it there.

It's no one's business at the end if the day.

All good.

This thread shouldn't turn into the other rubbish/bitching threads about the possible causes of his death.

This is certainly not a thread that's up for discussion

No need to apologise it's only natural to inquire. No offense should be drawn by anyone on any high pedestal because some asked what went wrong.
It doesn't disrespect Sean or the family.
If you or someone you love needs someone to talk to..encourage them to do so.
That's pretty clear ...so let's move on.

Agree.

*edit, do not speculate*

 

[Eels Dude]

Reading between the lines that's even more sad. On your previous post to the last Gronk, I fully agree it's very important. Such discussion should be saved for another thread though.

So, why the secrecy?

Personally I think there is a time and a place to discuss this but I feel that right now and here is neither. I would prefer that his family is given time to grieve without the rest of us offering anything other than our condolences and support on a public forum for now. Perhaps when the funeral has taken place and his family and friends have had an opportunity to at least get a little closure, it may be OK to speak more to provide answers to the many who have been effected by his passing. He was a part of the team we support so he became a part of all our lives and the fact is that from here on in we will remember the name Sean Burns.

I would imagine putting it out there would only increase awareness........the details of why etc. are private, but the actual event is very important........as Gronk pointed out!
