Adelaide Crows coach Phil Walsh has been found dead after an alleged domestic dispute in his Somerton Park home overnight.

Just after 2am today, police were called to a house in Bungey Avenue, Somerton Park, where they found the 55-year-old man's body.

Walsh's 26-year-old son has been taken into custody.

Puts things into perspective. Give a loved one a hug today.

Just got a text from a mate about it. Couldn't believe it. What a horrible story to wake up to. Thoughts are with everyone over there.

By your own son. So sad.

ASAGA/WADA/a bloke having a line of coke.... hopefully this sort of news will give the media a serious jolt of what really matters in life, and that is life itself.

It's nothing short of ******* terrible.

I don't listen to the radio in the morning. I read the paper, then listen to music on the way to work. My wife called just as I was logging in and I almost fell off my chair. It's strange, no big groups of people talking about it, but most are talking about it in groups of 2 to 4 people. Very hushed tones and you're right, I think everyone is shocked. Whether you love or hate the Crows, this transcends footy.

It seemed surreal when the story was at the bottom of the page on my app...crazy stuff. RIP

More as in a turn of phrase (like say hello to the new more centered Phil Walsh), not so much making up his death.

I saw a thread on the bay and had to double check...

Sad news. Goes to show no one knows what is going on in ppls private lives. RIP

Mind-boggling stuff. Immensely tragic and although it happens all the time all over the world it's beyond comprehension that people have the capacity to do these things.

 

[DapperDon]

I hope his wife has some strong family and friends around her as right now she is in her own personal hell.

Such a sad tragedy. Football pales into insignificance.

 

[Blind Turn]

That's horrific. RIP Phil.

Can't see how the Adelaide boys could possibly get up for Sunday. I couldn't.

 

[Mercurial89]

I'm actually speechless, just sitting here at work in dumb shock.

Didn't know the guy, and totally understand that people get killed every day without a peep being made. But I'm actually numb.

Stunned. Just lost for words. RIP Phil Walsh.

At the moment we don't know all the facts so I have removed some comments

 

[Doss]

This is just absolutely horrific. RIP, Phil.

I reckon this is because it makes it real. It happens to people we've never seen nor heard of and it remains distant. It happens to someone we see and hear every week for 30+ weeks a year and it makes us think if it can happen to him/her, it can happen to anyone,

That's my take on it, and I know my hug to my wife and kids when I see them after work will carry a little more than usual.

My husband came up to me this morning and told me the tragic news.
I'm honest enough to admit I shed a tear for a family forever broken.

RIP Phil

My thoughts are with his wife, family and friends, his colleagues and the Adelaide Football Club community
