Just moved a post regarding someone's passing

Similar to the Tommy Hafey situation early this year

Until there is official confirmation and out of respect it has been moved

from the song "Don't Walk Away" by Pat Benatar 1988 (Wide Awake In Dreamland)

Sadly, confirmed by Garry Lyon on Footy Classified tonight.

Passed away from complications after heart surgery earlier in the year.

RIP  :(.

A true great. Helped make the game what it is today.
It's that simple Spud
"I discussed (it) with my three daughters, my wife and my 82-year-old mum, because it has really affected me … If those comments … were made about one of my daughters, it would make the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I would not have liked it at all.”

One of my favourite non Richmond players. Hugely talented and a very fair player.

RIP.
OER. Calling it as it is since 2004.
