Shocked to see this. Roy was my favourite growing up. I fear this is a Danny Frawley situation.

Taken way too soon.

Life is precious. RIP.

Just yesterday I made a comment you never know when you’ll last see someone. How true.

 

[Moonwatcher]

If he rolled his vehicle then it isn't a Frawley situation.

Wow that’s awful news.

RIP Roy.

 

[Kram]

What a shame.

Was just thinking about him yesterday in that he may have been almost underrated in his amazing ability as a fieldsman.

Can we give the ‘Danny Frawley’ stuff a few minutes before speculating?….Jesus wept…
