Very sad to hear about the passing of former player, coach and president, Graeme John.
Not many RWOers would be old enough to know him but he is one of my all time favourite Swans and, as a kid in the 60s, I wore Graeme's number 7 on the back of my South Melbourne jumper. He was a fantastic player but, unfortunately, his on field career was hampered by injury. In 2005 at a Melbourne function honouring Bobby Skilton, I was thrilled to be able to get Graeme's autograph on his page in the the club's Team of the Century book, "Honour the Names."
A great man and a passionate Swan!
Sympathy to his loved ones.
