I know their Australians and have been a thorn in the side of many an English cricketer but they had to be admired. Following the death of Rodney Marsh aged 74 yesterday the great Shane Warne has died from a suspected heart attack today at the age of just 52. A sad loss to the sport even though both had retired a while ago.
RIP both Rodney and Shane.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.

Very sad, both exceptional players and great ambassadors for their country and sport.
Such a young age, just goes to show we really do need to make the most of every day.
RIP Rodney and Shane, condolences to their families.

I was sad to hear that Rod Marsh had passed away, he was a great cricketer and a leader and mentor. He was very ill after a massive heart attack. He will be sadly missed.
When I heard that Warnie was gone, I was stunned. Just like that. Only 52. He was a larrikin and a character, but he was a legend on the field. One of the greatest test bowlers ever.
A sad couple of days for Australia and world cricket.
Greetings from the land down under. :D
Blessed is he who expecteth nothing, for verily, he shall not be disappointed.
