Will Greenwood 'saddened to my core' following Ryan Jones' dementia diagnosis at 41 as messages of support pour in

Former England and British Lion Will Greenwood says Ryan Jones' dementia diagnosis at the age of just 41 has "saddened me to my core".

Jones revealed the news in an interview with a national newspaper on Saturday, saying doctors told him he was one of one of the worst cases the specialists had seen.

The response from the rugby public has been one of shock and sympathy for a man who captained his country on 33 occasions, earning 75 caps in total.
