Universal Love RIP Dean Jones

[Troystenvic]

I know it's not football related.

Really saddened to hear the sudden passing of one of Australia's great cricketers.

Died suddenly of cardiac arrest in Mumbai.

2020 is shit

great player, great to,listen too, real showman

Kept himself fit it was at the end of his daily run where he just collapsed in the hotel.

Absolutely terrible.

 

[Angry Red Bull]

Remember when he was dropped from test team with an average around 45. Premature I felt. The fielding, the running between wickets, the cavalier batting. True icon of the game. Everyone’s idol really

Too sad

 

[Swan4Life]

Not my favourite player of that era by any means. As I recall he often went to water against the Windies quicks, but overall was a solid contributor nonetheless.

Will never forget the game where he was 99 not out in the 50th over, and proceeded to score six dot balls!

Averaged over 50 in his last season.

Deano from a couple of accounts I heard yesterday was a terrific footy prospect as an under age player. Richmond were keen on giving him a scholarship.

Thrived as a prodigy in District Cricket. Stacky was his skipper and his dad was a hard man legend of District cricket. Deano was a great servant of Vic cricket and the great game here and overseas.

The establishment particularly Simpson were not fans.
