Thank you for this piece of work Dylan - I think it will go down as one of the most important pieces of sports journalism (no need for the sports in all truthfulness) to have been written in a very long time.

Dylan, thank you for writing about this amazing family. Dad took us to Athletic Park's Mallard Stand to watch Tu run Wellington's backline in the 80s. I could wax lyrical about his rugby skills - esp how deep he set his outside backs when WLGTN's backs were truly WORLD class. Instead, I want to cheer for our family friend, John Miller (my lecturer in Criminal Law at 'Varsity)who started the firm and the practice from which Brittany Peck took on and won this hard-fought victory for Margaret and her family. It's not often I am incredibly proud of our profession, but Brittany is a champion - we all need someone like her in our corner

Many thanks to Dylan for taking the time to document our story. His effort over many years to bring attention to the realities of CTE is making a difference. Nga mihi - Margaret and Tutekawa Wyllie
