That sucks I thought he was going to pull through from all reports obviusly not. Very sad RIP.

Bugger...just goes to show how fragile life is sometimes.

Before the game tonight they honoured him with 1 minute of applause rather than 1 minutes silence - I think that's awesome.

 

[Coxy]

Yeah, 1 minutes silence is always crap. Always too many drunk idiots yelling shit out. Applause is a better way to go.

Minutes silence last night at the Roosters game as well.

No one yelled out or anything, although you could hear all the people buying beer and food making noise.

All 14 Roosters fans were at the bar at the same time huh?
