Vale Shane Warne

[eltrain]

The whole nation is going to be in a state of bewilderment and sadness in the morning when they wake up.

Bloody hell, two legends of Australian cricket taken too early in one day…

Can’t believe it - 52 is just too young for him.

Literally were watching him fit as a fiddle commentate a month ago.

How sad. An absolute Australian sporting icon.

 

[CakeEater]

Greatest leg spinner ive ever seen

Enjoyed watching him bowl whether d1 or d5

Always something happening.

He lived a good life vale to his family and friends.

RIP Warnie. All time legend

 

[Grand Uncle Horace]

RIP. A true legend.

 

[SSwans2011]

Completely rattled by this. The absolute ****?

 

[Westend]

I am shocked disbelief

This can't be real. A lot of 70s and 80s cricket stars have passed away recently, but it hits really close when one of the stars you grew up watching and admiring is gone too soon. Feels like a part of your childhood is gone. Shane's lifestyle always seemed like he was here for a good time rather than a long time, but 52 is too young to die. RIP Legend.

 

[Eagle Wrath]

I just saw this on Twitter. holy crap

Rod Marsh and now Shane Warne

 

[Plugger35]

This can't be true.

I expected this with Rod Marsh but not Warnie.

Way too young.

 

[Opine]

Am totally shocked. RIP Warney.

 

[Altum Volantes]

Holy shit. That’s rocked me.

RIP Warnie.

 

[Heaps of fun]

Rest in Power, Warnie.

 

[Ekomaira]

wow. what the ****. what?!

 

[amazingjoshy]

Way too young

RIP

I dont think its too much to say we may never see another magnetic force like him on the cricket field again. I know when I was a kid I was fixated on every delivery. There was almost no just get it down the other end, he was weaving a web or trying something new with every delivery.

 

[Whiskers]

I’m struggling to believe it. Was watching a doco on him just yesterday and was loving it.

When I ‘bowl’ leg spin I have the exact approach to the crease he does. Growing up watching him I thought it was the only way to bowl spin.
Of course I hardly turn it but still, he was cricket for me as a youngster.
Devastating!

 

[Chucks]

WTF?! Is this real? Genuinely in shock over this. About to go to bed, saw a post, did the biggest double take ever. In shock

 

[brutus76]

 

[Dogsman16]

Absolutely sole destroying. Lost for words.

RIP Warnie!

 

[Trojan90]

Wow wtf! That Twitter post screamed Internet joke. Can’t believe it’s real!

 

[PhatBoy]

I can say hand on heart that I genuinely liked him but maybe didn’t idolise him like clearly a lot of people here did.

Guys I am just so sorry I can’t imagine the shock and empty feeling a lot of people my age have right now having grown up watching him just do the most amazing things with a cricket ball.

I can feel how much this hurts and it hurts me too but this is the sort of thing that really rocks people.

I’m having a bit of a cry at the moment

 

[Smoooothy]

I've been in shock for the past hour after reading it.

Incredibly sad. Best cricketer by far most of us have and ever will see

Honestly feels like I've lost a pet. Warney was a hero to a lot of guys like me

 

[Forward Press]

Nothing more to be said, really, but I will be watching this on repeat for a while...



RIP to the GOAT.
