It was announced earlier that Nick Koster has passed away. He was 34, caused of death has not been made known.
He was one of those WP talent and school boy prodigy that never really got going.
Originally an 8 and famously made his debut as an 18 year old for the barbarians.
Unfortunately, Rassie thought that he should be a winger instead of an 8 which really stuffed up his development.
He had a string of serious knee injuries and eventually settled at bath before being dropped where he went to the 2nd decision and helped Bristol get promotion.
He seemed very switch on and did some charity work along with studying at Cambridge and captaining there rugby team.
34 is very young. He could have a wonderful bok career had not been for Rassies poor judgement
