Ken 119 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 It has been such a shocking last couple of months for Australian cricket fans. Both Warnie and Roy are part of my generation as a fan and ofcourse they are part of the greatest generation that they have played in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he was as Aussie as an Aussie can be. It was never going to happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken 119 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 His two blueys (blue cattle dogs) were with him when he died. They wouldn't let first responders get to him to assist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 35063 Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Obviously better known for his ODI exploits but 25 tests is not to be sniffed at considering the level that Australian test side were at. He was born in England and I think one of his parents was from the Caribbean. But he was adopted as a baby and lived virtually all his life in Oz. I think the only talk about him playing for England was when he played for Gloucestershire and the press found out he’d been born here. But I think that’s all it ever was, i.e. paper talk in the UK 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like he tried to avoid an animal on the road the caused his car to flip. Always loved him commentating on our BBL league. It isn't good but his personality and knowledge made it interesting. Asked for a pay cut from his TV duties so that he could go fishing more. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
