    Yes I was saddened to hear of his death this morning.

    He was a champion with Collingwood, Brownlow medallist.

    I remember the season he played with South. He was an amazing ruckman. He wasn't at his best physically at the Swans, but he had a great football brain.

    A terrible shame. So young too - just 60.
