RIP Gentleman Jim. I will raise a Guinness to this great man, gone too soon. His greatness on the field was not worth a dime against his greatness off the field, not too many that can be said about. Very sad.

His football career and the transition from Irish schoolboy to Brownlow Medalist is legendary.
But where he proved himself to be a person of exceptional character and determination was in his work with the Reach charity he helped establish.
