Player Watch Pick #16 (2016) - Todd Marshall

[PAFC66]

Poor bugger. Get around him. Hopefully brings the club closer.

 

[ejdees]

At least he has a sibling and family for support

Luckily has 4 amazing siblings who'll all get around each other. Great family.

Thanks ejdees. Are they still all in Deni or spread out over the country? Maybe one of them can move over to Adelaide to support him if circumstances allow.

 

[Milanista28]

Poor kid. Gutted when i read the news. Hope he has all the support he needs looks like he does.

 

[Gryllis]

Horrible news, wishing him and his family all the best in such a tough time.

 

[WHOME]

What terrible news. Life can be so bloody cruel. Wish the lad and his family all the best.

The silverlining is his mum got to at least see his debut and his father, a coupla special games early this year as well. Showcasing his enormous talent. They'll now be watching from above smiling.

Very good to hear

Hard enough to lose your parents when you're in your 50s, never mind at such a young age.

Was lucky enough to meet Todd and have a few words at the family day last week. He's a fantastic young man.

I'm so sorry for your losses Todd. My heart goes out to you.

 

[Ford Fairlane]

Terrible news. Condolences to the Marshall family. We all feel your loss.

 

[Contested Marx]

That's just heartbreaking to watch

Feel for him

I trust he gets the support he needs and for how long it takes

He's just a kid

 

[DazalenkoUBewty]

So sad...

 

[Eagleboy2011]

My thought to Todd and his family. Something like this puts football rivalries and everything into a different perspective.

 

[MWPP]

Sorry to intrude
Just saw the news
I had tears in my eyes

Devastating and tragic to have lost both his parents at just 19

Life is so unfair sometimes

Deepest confolences to him , his family and his friends

 

[JimmyBeerCans]

Kid has been through a lot no wonder he seems so mature and low key, condolences to the Marshall family & take all the time you need Todd.

 

[Shane_Mag]

Thoughts go to Todd and the whole Marshall family.

 

[Janey]

Nothing can replace family at a time like this, but we can rest assured that everyone at the club will do everything possible to support Todd. KT is one of the most compassionate people around and the players and coaches have been through tragedies, both on a personal and club level, that will give them some empathy for what Todd is going through.
This young man is seriously due some happy times after so much sadness.

 

[PJ Power]

Just the most devastating news. The poor young man. My heart goes out to him and his siblings. As usual this sort of tragedy puts all the disappointments that footy can bring into perspective. It is only a game.

 

[Marsh1870]

Devastating news for Todd and his family. Such an awful 7 months for them.

 

[edgie]

Good grief.

Terrible, terrible situation he's found himself in.

We've been shitting on the club for a fortnight now, but I'm absolutely positive he'll have one of the best support networks available, not just in the AFL, but anywhere.

Deepest sympathies.

So pleased to hear that he has a good, close family.

 

[Macca19]

Heart breaking. That's all that can be said. Utterly heart breaking.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Shocked to hear

 

[Coobk001]

2 parents passing at 1 time in say a car crash or something wouldn't be new, but 2 separate deaths of the separate parents in such a short time is just brutal. As soon as he's probably started to feel like he's emotionally come to terms with one, he's been struck with another.

Just couldn't even fathom what he's going through. He's got so much more important stuff to deal with right now than footy that's for sure.
