RIP Phil.

Awful news, Colin. I've seen him play often.

Dreadful news. Puts things in perspective somewhat.
Nostalgia is not what it used to be. 😟

I didn't realise he was still playing at that level. Very sad news indeed.
I apologise, in advance.

Good lord...I haven't checked out the UK news sites yet, but I'm sure this is all over them.
Tragic news.

We have had two on-field deaths at my club (Capalaba) over the years, both heart attacks.
