Sean Wight passes away

Yes wrong forum but I couldnt give a stuff. Deserves to be seen by all on here. Very sad. He was only 47 years old and never smoked or drunk and died of lung cancer this morning.

Very sad.

I was reading where his mum had come out from Ireland because he was so ill and was sleeping on a matress in his hospital ward, so I knew it was near.

Way too young and just plain stiff to get lung cancer when he'd never smoked and looked after himself pretty well.

[Life Long Saint]

Terrible news.

Just goes to show that when it is your time, it's your time.

Live and enjoy your life while you can because you never know what is aroud the corner.

[Sainternist]

Oh no!

This is very sad.

I'm with you Plugger. Who gives a crap if it's not St.Kilda related.

I never knew he was a straightedger. That is so unlucky.

Condolences to his family, friends and Dees fans.

R.I.P.

The high flying #27 Irishman was a good player in his day, without being a super star. Good honest player who had a great leap.

So sad to have him lose his life so young.

RIP.

[St DAC]

[SainterSoul]

Go to Dublin in a Footy jumper of any kind and you'll very quickly be asked about Jim and Sean

Really sad news, RIP

RIP Sean

[Con Gorozidis]

He was a cool player. Awesome leap and a pioneer for irish-afl relations.

So bizarre he and Jimmy have cancer - I always see them as a double act.

[evertonfc]

Very sad indeed. RIP.

[dcstkfc]

A great story and from what I hear a great man.

Gone too young.

RIP

[Armoooo]

I had never heard of him before he got sick but ever since then I've heard countless stories that serve as a testament to his character, R.I.P, 47 is way too young.

[I Love Peter Kiel]

Absolutely hated the guy when he continually kicked the ball out of bounds to frustrate the Saints in a game at Moorabbin.

But hell, all is forgiven now. Good on you mate. life's too short!

An Irish Blessing

May the road rise up to meet your feet;
May the wind be always gentle at your back
and the sun shine warm upon your face.
May the welcome rains fall softly upon your fields
And, until we meet again,
may God hold you in the palm of his hand.





Here's some more...

[I Love Peter Kiel]

Finally, let's fill 'the parting glass' for Sean.

I'll drink to you tonight, Wighty!

Yes wrong forum but I couldnt give a stuff. Deserves to be seen by all on here.

That statement sums up perfectly why we should abolish that other ridiculous forum which virtually nobody reads or posts on.

And I notice the mods haven't moved this thread yet.

As per Sean Wight: yes, he was a good, brave player who helped to lift the Dees from being an even crappier side than we were to being a premiership contender. Great stuff and RIP
