JOSH JONES has joined the growing list of ex-players suing rugby’s governing bodies after being diagnosed with a brain injury.
The former Super League star – who also had a spell in the 15-a-side code with Exeter Chiefs – announced yesterday he has Stage 2 Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE).

Jones, 31, retired from playing last September, shortly after leaving Huddersfield Giants having been sidelined by numerous concussions.
