Slightly surprised the fern didn’t pick this one up earlier, I remember the try he got like it was yesterday. I hope he dined out on it as he should have.....
Not reading your post coz alcohol ... ,,,
... but remember him scoring early on against us in 95 pool game and getting all Irish about it.
Good on him.

Ronald Pickup. British character actor who seemed to pop up everywhere but was always excellent.

Not a famous person as such but well known in the NSW Rugby circles and a close friend for many years. The article is written by Peter FitzSimons.
We played a social (but highly competitive) game of touch together 2 or 3 times a week for a decade and often caught up for beers at the Rag and Famish pub in North Sydney until he and his family moved away from Sydney after which we sadly lost touch.
This really came as a shock, such a great character and yeah, only 3 years older than I am.

Murray Walker - the voice of Formula One.
A lot smarter than he sounded at times when commentating and by all accounts a helluva good bloke.

RIP. Murray Walker and James Hunt were one of the very best sports commentary double acts.

One of boxings greats from probably the best ever boxing era... Marvelous Marvin Hagler at aged 66
The Hearns v Hagler fight, all time great for such a short fight.
Undoubtedly. Guys really FOUGHT in those days unlike so much of what we see nowadays ( cough cough Floyd Mayweather ). I’ve watched that fight on more than one occasion with the old man, both guys were absolutely tough as fuck.
Hagler only got knocked down once in his whole career and even that was disputed as possibly being a slip. So powerful and intimidating at his best.
RIP.
