That cuts.

 

[The Nulla #2]

RIP Bourke.

From what i have been told, a legend.

Rest in peace

 

[30 Year Sharkie]

Yes, a legend - back from the days when we had many of them. Almost the hero of the 73 GF (and I think played in the 78 as well), and a hero to many (predominantly female!) fans in that decade.

I went to school with his sister at Endeavour. The memories... Too young to check out - two legends in a season. Tragic.

Vale Rick.

was he on the footy show not long ago?

 

[Nullajet]

yes footballer that was him, mate. 51......far too young.

 

[carcharias]

I was only a kid when he and Sludge played but it didn't take a genius to figure out that they were proud to wear that jersey.

All the best to his family.
