- In this video report, the North Devon Journals Liam Curtis visits Barum Rugby Club for their first day of the season, where they are paying tribute to tragic New Zealand All Black Jerry Collins, who passed away earlier this year.
What a great bloke Jerry was, my favourite story about him was the time he turned up in some village pub and asked the landlord if he could watch the telly as there was a rugby match on. The landlord said sure but told him the telly was only a portable one, "hang on" said Jerry and walked across to the supermarket and came back with a big flat screen telly, "there you go mate, plug that one in" said Jerry. He was loved everywhere he went.
Love this story about our Jerry.. Thank you for sharing it.. I can't help wiping my tears remembering the many great things he did for small communities around the world when he just rocked up and asked to play. From his humble hometown of Porirua Wellington NZ, where the Northern United Rugby Club is based, we will always remember this great hero of the game. He continues to inspire us..
Everything I hear about Jerry is positive. A formidable world class flanker, one of the toughest men to ever play the game, but a genuinely humble and lovely guy off the pitch.
Thank you ...My cousin to me was a sweet man...love him always xx
That is a great sign of respect to Jerry Collins. Rugby is the thing that connects us 👊❤👍💪💯% RIP JC.

Great clip thanks !!!
Beautiful story, thank you
Was a great story, a small Devon town touched by a New Zealand Giant!
Missed by all rugby fans he so wanted to win the World Cup when asked what would happen if the ABs didn’t bring the cup back to New Zealand “ it’s a long way to swim home “ R.I.P big man !
would have raised a few eyebrows on the opposition teams when they see the terminator running out ...
Hamstring would have gone on sight
Mad Respect what a gr8 story and the his legacy will live on, this deserves a Denzel Washington my man,
you know our news outlets did a poor job letting us know he was a town hero (in new zealand)
Wow even had the socks on for the ba ba’s😍👊🏾👊🏾

"Bend it like Collins"
Such a shame that a supposedly local journalist doesn't know how to pronounce Barum. Otherwise a great story about a great player and a great club
