Our family got to know the Claytons quite well when the lads played their junior footy at Salisbury, he was always able to share his time to offer advice/support around the club, a really good fella to have around.

Thoughts with the Port Adelaide community, and Bob's family and friends etc, sad loss for the Magpies and South Aussie footy.

A sad day for the Port Adelaide Football Club and for South Australian Football in general.

Was lucky enough to have a general footy chat with Bob some time last year when at a Maggies game, a really nice guy and passionate Maggies man.

Condolonces to the family and friends, RIP Bob.
