I'm not really sure how to write this without sounding callous. I guess I should preface that I'm heartbroken he's gone, I'm heartbroken for his family and I'm gutted the game has lost such a character.
The callous sounding part though, is that I also feel cheated. I feel cheated as a football fan that we only just began to see his greatness. I feel cheated as a Crows fan because rightly or wrongly, I genuinely believe that with Walsh at the helm we would have won a flag.
I'm aware that's the furthest thing from what's important right now, but I believed in him. I had this unwavering belief that I've never really experienced in any of our coaches. I was too young to have that kind of grasp of the game when Blight was leading us, I probably experienced it a little with Craig but that was fleeting and I never experienced it with Sanderson.
Walsh was so self assured in his message, he was a custodian of the game. To sit here saying a bloke who had a 7-5 record would go on to be a premiership coach seems like such a long bow to draw on the surface (I could even understand other fans calling me delusional) but I can't waiver from that belief.
We lost a man who was capable of taking us to a flag in the years ahead.
I hope the club finds a way to permanently honour the man through our guernsey's, through the stadium and through some kind of permanent marker outside the ground.
As far as I'm concerned this is the most significant event in our history and will define our club for decades to come.
Not callous at all. There are so many parts to this, the human side, the players, club and his family. The man himself to all of us. The football club and the impact there, the future. Of course the ultimate importance is the loss and his family but this is a natural impact as well.I'm not really sure how to write this without sounding callous.

Yes. Who would have known that our 2015 motto would have become the most pertinent phrase imaginable.For me whenever I think of "We Fly As One" I will be thinking of Walsh and the way we have all felt and reacted the last few days.
That motto and the signage at the games we have used this year with the motto on it have to stay with the club forever.
WOW !!!!!!!!!!!
Your sentiment mirror my feelings exactly.
And it will define our club forever. Whatever we have known of our club, and whatever we have felt about our club, is forever changed.
Wow !This on Offsiders was quite lovely
