passing

just heard of the passing away of the great great  dick huddart  a world class player.

Dick Huddart was an all time great. Remember in particular his performance in the 1959 Championship Final at Odsal when, if memory serves me right, he scored a fantastic hat-trick in one of the greatest finals ever.

Also one of the best second rows ever to represent GB. When I edited Roughyeds progamme in 2002 I ran a series on 'The Greatest Rugby League Players Ever' (well at least 1951 to 2002). Dick Huddart I had at number 8!

And yet another sad loss with the passing of Terry Ramshaw. 2017 is not starting off well for great servants of rugby league,.

Why don't people say "died" any more, it's pathetic.

I hate this "he's passed" - passed what?

It's like you're trying not to upset the four-year old in the room.
