News RIP Ron The Bear

[Barbieup]

Was he always quick with a stat much like someone would be quick with a joke?

Just an irreplaceable being is Ron.

Hi - Ronnie's oldest, younger sister here ... yes, he was quick with the quip. And a huge laugh and smile.

Awful news - do you think he would have had a final message to us all ?

Was always very helpful when I asked him for stats and I enjoyed shitting on Hawthorns dads army strategy with him on here for the last few years. RIP Ron.

 

[Sprout]

Sorry to hear. Always informative and while passionate about his club and willing to debate, he did it with class. RIP.

 

[BallaratBulldog]

Really liked the age comparison in every match day thread and various other stats posts.

RIP Ron The Bear.

When's dinner?

"I'm thinking trade rather than sack. Stack is the brightest first-year talent to walk through the doors in 40+ years I've been going to the footy. " after the kebab kerfuffle last year.

One of the best on here.

RIP Ron the Bear, so sad to hear of his passing. He was amazing at statistics, he could quickly find answers to the most obscure statistics questions asked on those boards.

I'm so sorry for your family's loss, I hope you are all doing as well as possible. It must be a terrible time for you.

RIP Ron

Can't think of a single topic I agreed with you on, but I always enjoyed reading your thoughts all the same.
Bigfooty won't be the same without your knowledge and wit. Condolences to your family and friends.

RIP Ron. That's just really sad news. Sympathies to his family and friends.
He was just one of those I consider a stalwart of this place. 53 is way too young. I'm only 2 years off from that.

 

[Hojuman]

Vale Ron. Only recently caught onto his great posting, no matter the subject.
Sensible head on sensible shoulders and made me smile.

Go well mate.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Sad to hear this - always enjoyed his contributions and glad he got to enjoy his team winning flags again.

 

[PTizzle]

Fantastic stats man. Always enjoyed reading his contributions. RIP RTB.

 

[NetworkNerd]

I consider myself a bit of a stats man in an argument and would simply tag him and get the stat if I couldn't get it myself.

I know he kept his own databases he mentioned it once. Will be missed .

Such sad news. We had words on a number of occasions, but he was an asset to the community. I'll miss him being around the place.

Chief how about an RTB badge, that's a % sign? Not sure about distribution but it would be a nice touch.

Was almost it's own meme to tag him in silly obscure stats discussions, will be greatly missed on here. Shocking news. RIP mate.
