League Legend Jack Gibson dies.

[Jeba]

RIP the great man. Changed the face of coaching in Rugby League and I've no doubt his influence will live on for as long as I am watching the game. Condolences to his family and those who were close to him.

Did anyone hear that kiwi fan during the minutes silence to pay respect for Jack Gibson. this kiwi fan yells out (during the minutes silence [icon_thumbs_do ) "GO KIWIS" then laughs. I thought that was DOWN RIGHT RUDE AND DISRESEPECTFUL. THIS GUY SHOULD HAVE SOME RESPECT. [icon_non [icon_non [icon_thumbs_do [icon_thumbs_do

I reckon he was as drunk as hell. [icon_drun But anyway RIP Gibson, you will be sorely missed :cry:

I doubt he was being intentionally disrespectful. People get pissed and do silly things.

 

[broncosil]

Very sad, and was a great asset and innovator to the game. I can't believe he died 1.5 hours before kick off on the day of the centenary test.

RIP Jack Gibson. My sympathies to his family and friends.

That's no excuse though.

Great tribute by Channel 9 this arvo. Plenty of people are in the same boat as me - they know that Jack Gibson's work over the course of his career was to be admired but they weren't old enough to appreciate it as it happened. This tribute gave me the perfect insight. Channel 9 [eusa_clap.gi

Was there a minute silence at the game today.

I arrived at about 1.30pm & was expecting it to happen before the game started.

Could agree more, mate. Great for us 20-somethings to get a little feel of his input into the game and the effect that he had on rugby league as a whole. Top shelf effort [eusa_clap.gi

Taped it.

Can I get it? I missed it of course. Thought it was a silly time to show it in Brissie given so many people would be at the Broncos game.

You certainly can!! It is heading to Stanthorpe this weekend so you can have it between now and then if you want icon_thumbs_u

 

[Flutterby]

Cheers, but don't like my chances of seeing you between now and the weekend. Maybe I can grab it when it gets back from it's trip to the country.

 

[Aeetee]

Nah Jebba will be a gentleman and make a special trip to your place you cause your so swell :mrgreen:

 

[Flutterby]

He'll have to swing by twice - to drop it off and pick it up.

 

[Aeetee]

You'll be home for Jebba. [icon_razz1

 

[Flutterby]

huh??

 

[Aeetee]

I swear, your post ended in; and who said I'll be home.
