Brett Deacon
Brett Deacon (born 7 March 1982 in Leicester, England) is a retired rugby union player who notably played for Leicester Tigers in the Premiership. He played as a blindside flanker or No. 8. He is the younger brother of Leicester and England international Louis Deacon.
He left Leicester Tigers at the end of the 2009–10 season after seven seasons, to play for Gloucester. In 2012, after being released from Gloucester Rugby he re-joined Leicester Tigers.
On 19 December 2013, Deacon was forced to retire due to a diagnosis of lupus, an autoimmune disease which in his case led to potentially life-threatening blood clots; he was immediately placed on blood thinners. However, he remained with Leicester Tigers to take a coaching role with their academy.

Buried Again
by: Dreadful ShadowsThere's something cold and blank
Behind her smile
She's standing on an overpass
In her miracle mile
'Cause you were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away, today
Today
Today
To run away!
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
Her mouth was an empty cut
And she was waiting to fall
Just bleeding like a Polaroid that
Lost all her dolls
Cause you were from a perfect world
A world that threw me away, today
Today
Today
To run away!
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
You were from a perfect world,
A world that threw me away today.
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
A pill to make you numb
A pill to make you dumb
A pill to make you anybody else
But all the drugs in this world
Won't save her from herself
