Chris Mainwaring, 41, dies in Perth

October 01, 2007
FORMER West Coast Eagles premiership player Chris Mainwaring has died in Perth today.

Mainwaring, 41, was rushed to hospital by ambulance at midnight after collapsing at home.

Paramedics later took him from his upmarket house in the coastal Perth suburb Cottosloe to Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital.

The former champion wingman was among the original Eagles 1987 team.

He played in two premierships in 1992 and 1994.

The 201-game veteran helped propel the Eagles into a league powerhouse.

He quit West Coast in 1999 after a comeback from a debilitating knee injury.

Ten has also said drug overdose, and ABC has reported a 41 year old man had died of a drug overdose.

Drugs or not it's still a tragedy that someone has passed away so young, and the biggest tragedy is that he has left 2 kids behind.

RIP.
