                              @Frank they are saying it was a medical event so not sure if it's suicide. If so though you're definitely right there.

                                Really fellas? He has passed away, it's incredibly sad, do we need to speculate or hint at anything?

                                RIP Connor and for his wife and kids I am incredibly sad!

                                  You're right, no point speculating. It's super sad news and it will be devastating for his wife and kids. RIP Connor.

                                    Oh man, that is super sad news. Whatever happened his whanau are going to be shattered and from what I've read he was a great human being as well as a talented sportsman. RIP Connor, you will be sorely missed.

                                        @Dan54 sadly, this is inevitable, people want and expect to know, if they dont, they speculate, as seems the case on several posts about his passing on SM.

                                        Various ones do say a medical event, but either way, this is so sad for his whanau.

                                          I suspect it's a brain aneurysm or cardiac arrest which are deadly medical events. I don't think there were any suicide links in the article. Either way his death is incredibly sad for all involved and a reminder to give those we love a big, long hug.
