EspañolFormer England rugby player Steve Thompson has spoken publicly about his early onset dementia, revealing he has lost memories of England's 2003 World Cup victory. "It doesn't look like me," Thompson said when watching footage of the historic win.
The former hooker, who was part of the England team that won the World Cup, discussed his condition in an interview with former teammate Ben Youngs. Thompson's case has raised awareness about the potential long-term effects of head injuries in rugby.
