The rugby world is in mourning following the tragic death of All Blacks legend Jonah Lomu.

The former New Zealand winger, the star of the 1995 World Cup, was 40.

The All Blacks team doctor said it was an unexpected death, according to a report from New Zealand television station 3News. But it has also emerged that Lomu was on the waiting list for a second kidney transplant after his first (2004) failed in 2011.
