Truly horrible. Not fair.

when a good & young soul passes away it makes us remember "footy"

is a "game" yes, with passion & emotion but there's always tomorrow.

may his family be blessed with wonderful memories. Condolences.....

Sad news.

Sorry to hear that.

There comes a point in every man's life when he has to say, "Enough is enough." For me, that time is now. I have been dealing with claims that I cheated and had an unfair advantage in <redacted>. Over the past three years, I have been subjected to a <redacted>investigation followed by <redacted> witch hunt. The toll this has taken on my family, and my work for <redacted>and on me leads me to where I am today – finished with this nonsense. (Oops just got a spontaneous errection <unredacted>)

What a tragedy. Sympathies to you WO on the loss of such a close mate. I can't fathom the catastrophe this must be for his wife and his kids.

Anyone looking for a 'positive spin' on the season? The Saints will be back next week. And you are here, right now.


They will not grow old, as those from more northern States grow old.
For them it will always be three-quarter-time, with the scores level
and the wind advantage in the final term.

Have no idea who you are referring to but that is way too young from a 52 year old who considers himself young still. Condolsences to the family.. s*** I think that spelling might be a bit out.
