News Phil Walsh RIP

[The Karma Bus]

Agree with Richardson at St. Kilda too, has that something.
And that was the word about him as well.

I thought she would or might keep some. There is a huge amount of clothing etc with messages is all.

Some should be saved at the club for posterity. Like a bouquet at a wedding. Lots of bouquets.

There's also having faith in the folk that Phil had around him. If he was just sick he would hand the reigns. Our club can do the job.

Next man up

And there I go again.

One of the greatest scenes from my favourite film.

Saturday night we didn't go to the AFL match in Darwin. We went glamping down bush. No FOX TV. No internet etc. Just silence. Got up 6am took a walk about. I slept like a log. This was my way to reflect to take time.

Hello all,

Words cannot describe how we have all felt this weekend trying to understand how this tragedy has unfolded. I find that reflection, thinking about the good times with Phil and your club together can help with the grieving process. Stay strong, we're all thinking of the Adelaide Crows and the family of Phil Walsh.

I should have been an opposition fan today at Adelaide Oval as a Geelong fan, but that has been the furthest thing from my mind today. Instead I have spent the day putting together my own tribute to Phil (see below) which was hard when thinking about the scenes that have filtered through from the Adelaide Oval today.

This is how I like to think of Phil now. He wont be out there with the whiteboard, but he will be watching.

I'm a mess again

It's going to take a while to recover from this.

Hi guys.

I just wanted to say that while our club's respective supporter bases' relationship has been strained in recent times, the relationship between the respective clubs themselves couldn't be stronger. I'm not going to suggest for a second that any of the other 16 clubs would have handled the situation any different to my own club's handling of it, but it was humbling to see two clubs and the AFL handle the situation with such humility. It's unfortunate that it takes a situation like this to restore one's faith in humanity.

For just one weekend, human empathy and compassion was triumphant over everything else. Football is just a game and can be played any other weekend of the season. Money is just something that can be recouped creatively at a later stage. But paying tribute to a wonderful man under such tragic circumstances is an unfortunate opportunity which comes but once in a lifetime. As far as I'm concerned, to share the points with Adelaide this weekend is an absolute honour.

R.I.P Philip Walsh.

Oh man! If that doesn't bring a tear to your eye - then, I just have no words.

In an an ironic twist, this is the closest I have felt to the club in a long time.

My emotional state over the lst few days has surprised me and this tragic event has shown me just how much I really do love the AFC.

The Phil Walsh legacy is the start of a new era. We will bounce back from this twice as strong, both on, and especially off the field.

 

[Rankine2Rachele]

Saw this on Twitter.

 

[FR0GGY]

I think Alan Richardson is of a similar ilk; you can see it how he talks and presents himself, and the impact he's already had on the Saints. It's a sheer force of will, intensity and discipline thing.

But you're right, I don't think there are too many out there like him.

You can easily see how port have been affected losing both Alan and Phil.

 

[Mike Smyth]

I just cannot see this generation of Crows overcoming this in a football sense. There's not another Phil Walsh out there.

Don't worry, we'll bounce back we always do. This will galvanise the club and supporterbase and we will do great things in the future, although, unfortunately, it will not be with Phil at the helm. I have confidence in Fagan, Roo and the supporterbase.

I just looked at this photo and realised that all our boys numbers are significant including having a 52 and 44 as well as a 5, 24 and 36!
