Sources close to the rugby legend said he was "in really bad shape" as he remained in hospital battling complications from his kidney condition.

They said Lomu, 36, is seriously ill and may have had major health complications for longer than the six days he has so far been in the renal unit of the kidney and liver transplant wing of Auckland Hospital.

I know nothing about rugby but over heard some guys at the office saying a kidney is failing after some boxing training or something?

For those who don't know him, an awesome sight in full stride

He had kidney problems years ago,hope he receives the treatment he requires.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

He's always had a serious kidney condition. It's arguably why he never had any prolonged success after his initial burst of glory.

I really hope he pulls through. The man is a legend. I had the same condition as him when I was a young lad (though thankfully not as severe). here's hoping he can battle through it once more.

I thought it was another signing rumour.
