Giving it his all, just as he did on the rugby field.

The rugby world is still trying to make sense of the tragic passing of Jerry Collins, aged 34, and his wife Alanna Madill.

Both were tragically killed in a motorway collision in the south of France, in the early hours of Friday. Their daughter, Ayla [four months old], was injured in the crash but, according to reports from France this morning, her condition has improved slightly.

LADBible has posted footage of a Haka [the New Zealand Maori war dance] that Collins took part in, on Thursday, at a testimonial banquet in honour of his friend, and fellow rugby player, Henry Tuilagi.

As you will see, Collins does not hold back but performs with a gleam in his eye.
