He was 94, I was moved when I heard it in the car on my way home, it also made me smile thinking of all the funny things I remember growing up and he was "the face" of VFL football IMO.

His legend will live on forever, up there with the top names in football history, probably the most liked character in the game.

RIP Louie the Lip.

I dont feel that sad when any 94 year old dies. But I do remember the sunday footy show and the handball comps. Part of my childhood

Of course its sad. I meant that in the context that its not unexpected and he obviously lived a full life.

Life can be so unfair sometimes.
Just reading this article below makes me sad but also grateful for everything I have.

So so sad

Saw him at the BDO and at Soundwave, a BDO sideshow in Sydney, and on his solo tour. Amazing voice

I loved Temple of the Dog & Soundgarden, grew up with them.
Gone too soon, RIP.

Becoming? Been all ****** up for quite a while now mate.

Manchester is one of the UK's biggest melting pots of culture, large muslim population and one of the most diverse cultural precincts.

Pretty low act by the perpetrators, Ariana Grande concert, full of young women and girls. Strikes at the heart of us all when innocent children are killed.

The last update I had (approx. 8:30am) was that this was potentially a pyrotechnics fault. I take it this is no longer the case?
