Very sad, unreal, tragic, condolences too all concerned.

I posted this elsewhere.

Been digesting the Phil Walsh murder since I heard it on the radio this morning.
Bloke who was considered as a father figure by so many young men, allegedly killed by his own son.
Work pays the bills, family is why you go to work.
Work to live and enjoy the time you have with family. Time goes quick.
RIP Phil.

I always considered Phil Walsh the "One That Got Away"
He had a brilliant debut season at Collingwood and right from the start he seemed to be a ready made footballer. What a sight he was, dashing down the wing with his unruly mop of shaggy hair. And then to lose him to the hated Tigers. That was a blow.

Thanks, Dyso.

A number of posts have been deleted.

Please keep your comments about Phil Walsh and not what may happen. 1: The court case and 2: Who may coach the Crows.

Both these issues will be featured in Nick's Other AFL.

Other issues, ensuing from this situation, may appear in the VPT.
Donny.

It's a game. Enjoy it. :D

Awful news. 51 is way too young, another reminder of how fragile life is. Condolences to his family, friends and the Geelong FC.
