Owen continued: “The scale and aggression of s*** in my mentions and DMs every day for three months is something I sincerely hope nobody else ever has to go through.
“I could recount all the s*** I’ve received (threats of violence, assertions about my character, kill-yourself stuff, nothing I haven’t had before) but ultimately, I just don’t want to do this anymore, and with the site going the way it is anyway, I don’t see any point trying.
“We’ve got a new video coming tomorrow and maybe I pop back in every so often to share new videos and updates, but being here all day every day, getting a new log of shit every few minutes has ground my mental health down into a fine paste. And I don’t want that any more.”
Owen’s work has been praised in the past by South Africa head coach Rassie Erasmus, who complimented his understanding of the game and humour.
