Unfortunately ex pie John Mc Carthy may have died in an incident in Vegas.
Twitter has named McCarthy as the player involved.

I really hope this is not true.

AFL player is has definately died, possibly falling off a balcony.

All indications so far that it is John.

Absolutely gut wrenching, feel for his family and friends.

Speechless.

Shattering news if true.

Wow. That is devastating news. I'm in shock. I seriously cannot believe that.

Really, really hoping it's not true, but condolences to the family.

So sad for his poor family, greiving and having to get an a harrowing plane journey to Las Vegas. Those poor people.

 

[Bloben]

The age reporting that it was from a fall from a balcony. Shit this is just terrible

 

[MeisterBot]

What a tragedy.

Condolences to his friends, family and the PAFC. I'm hoping it's not JMac, but any AFL player dying before their time is tragic.

 

[Magpira]

This is horrible news. I extend my deepest sympathies to all of his family, friends and the Port Adelaide Football club

 

[Prestigerrycomo]

Awful bloody news, we'd have some pretty upset players this week.

 

[Mobbsy]

very sad day for his family, friends, fans and both the Collingwood and PA footy clubs.

 

[Old Spice]

Might be worth removing name until confirmed guys. It may not be who we think.

 

[Mars II]

Such horrible news I always liked him this news sucks so bad.

 

[MarkT2]

Shocking news.
Puts things into perspective.
Will send shockwaves through our club as well as Port.
Condolances to the family and friends.

Port released a statement (or at least a tweet) saying he was seriously injured, so the thread title does have credence.

I believe they have since deleted the comment though, make of that what you will.

This has really left me flawed on a Monday, complaining about my own crap.

I hope this is not true.

Deleted after they thought about it. Many of his family and friends wont know yet and you don't want to find out through media grapevines.
