Today, both the crows and power fly as one and can never let domestic violence tear us apart.

I don't scoff at all. The poor thing is never going to see it's best friend again and it won't have any idea why. Tragic.

It is a bit comforting to know there's still plenty of people around to care for all living things when s**t happens. The support that the victims are receiving is undeniable.

RIP Phil Walsh. My prayers are with his family and friends. I hope our players are coping with this tragic loss
Our club and everyone involved have had it pretty bad the last few years.
Dean Bailey, but incidents like today and with JMac where you haven't had time to prepare before it happens are the worst.

Rugby may be the game played in heaven but some god seems to be assembling a pretty good Aussie Rules coaching panel.
Condolences to you guys and the PAFC he was obviously a bloke that has left his mark on many people and at many clubs.
My thoughts after the passing of two people so close to both clubs I'd think it would warrant ditching the "Showdown" tag. Call it "The Bailey/Walsh Memorial Game and base it around uniting both supporter groups as compared to the division that surrounds it now.
Just a thought.
RIP Phil Walsh.

It would be great if teams could unite for these games with mutual respect. Friendly rivalry rather than ill-feeling. We have a lot in common.
Most of all, we're all people.

Condolences to all supporters of any club affected by this tragic loss.
I've been shocked all day.
Unproductive, stuneed. Lost for words all day. I can't get my head around him just gone.
Phil was a great man. A huge loss for the crows.
R.I.P mate. Hope to have a cordial with you in heaven.

The shock has subsided only to be replaced with sheer sadness. I was at work today and when the news broke, everyone was in disbelief. So sad it had to happen let alone in this way.
RIP Walsh. Great man indeed

Someone said it perfectly earlier. We're brothers. We always bicker, we're always fighting and we don't want the other one to succeed because we'll be jealous. But when circumstances like today happens, we come together. We support and work together to come through adversity. We grieve together.The shocking circumstances has indefinitely rocked our clubs to the core. We both had deep connections with the golden man himself, part of the 2004 Premiership for you guys and cult hero and rising coach for us. After seeing the tributes from both our clubs, but most in particular the Power jumper with that wonderful passage on it at our club office, I wipe the continuous tears from my eyes right this second as it is clear that the tragedy of today has united the spirit of this beautiful state. Yes, the season is always filled with banter toward each other, but today is a day of celebration and conjunction.
From us guys to you, I want to honestly thank you for the support today and I would like to send my own thoughts and prayers to everyone at the Power who was close with Walsh during his tenure as assistant coach. Today we have united together and we truly fly as one.
Port or Crows....today is about One state. One legend
#GoodbyeWalsh
Today we lost one of our own. We'll come together and we'll find a way to get through this tough time.

I've read that previously and while I haven't seen the footage the thought of it makes my guts turn.

The messages on our board by Power supporters have been welcomed and appreciated. Thank you. It is easy to forget that he touched many Clubs in so many good and wonderful ways.
This is one of the darkest days in South Australian footy and Australian footy.
Today both our South Australian Clubs are united as one.

Nah definitely not scoffing. Said the same thing to my 10 year old.

I know I carry on like a flog on here about PAFC, but the sadness on our board and yours and across this state and the broader AFL community is devastating.
The uniting of our two Clubs on this tragic day is telling to say the least.
