News Phil Walsh RIP

[Crow54]

Was re-watching his presser from the Lions game.

I think most have moved onto the fact that Campo is now in charge. But just watching that press conference really hit hard, not necessarily with tears rolling down the face but just the realisation that he's dead. Gone forever. I think more so because the press conference is seeing him in charge. Actively being coach. Obviously since the tragedy it's mostly being pictures, and sometimes you get a bit detached from the reality that he was the coach.

You sort of expect him to come back after a brief hiatus.

Very true. I carry on with my life just the same as I did before, then it pops up ... Phil's really gone. Disbelief again, followed by such sadness that he's never going to have the chance to win a premiership. He was at the beginning of a possibly wonderful journey, and it's gone now.

Yea, the footage from training and him with the boys is brilliant - you can see how genuine the care and affection; and respect, was.

 

[Elite Crow]

Oh man, I didn't need to watch that again.

Bloody tragedy. ******* sucks.

 

[Rotayjay]

I hope the boys do you proud Walshy. As they put the team first and give it their all for the rest of 2015, your legacy is well and truly alive - and will live on not just this season but forever in the Adelaide Footy Club.

It was the most tears I've shed since the incident watching that video.

I was overseas at the time so i wasn't consumed and surrounded by it at the time.

I was overseas too, so it was kind of easier to put it out of my mind since I had plenty to occupy my mind. Wouldn't have been like that if I had of been home.

 

[AmericanCrow]

Especially enjoyed the boys teasing him on his lines during practice....

thought it was tuuuuurrrrrrrriffffffic!

Great idea, much better than sitting in storage, especially since they say its the non-personalized gear.

My dad just passed away last night after battling a long term illness. It's been a s**t year. But in another 6 weeks my daughter will be born. The highs and lows of life.

 

[Crow54]

Commiserations, Roo Lives Again. A sad time for you and your family. But some joyous anticipation, too, even though it's muted at the moment. All the best.
