Simply an extraordinary being.
I watched "My Name is Gulpilil" last night.
I found the last few minutes of it were so powerful and so moving.
I reckon he'd be at peace having joined the eternal dreaming with his ancestors.

Sad news. Was a trailblazer for updates on clubs and players during the footy replays. May he RIP.
Don't confuse your current path with your final destination. Just because it's dark and stormy now doesn't meant that you aren't headed for glorious sunshine!

Sad news.
One of the best footy journos going around when I was growing up. Also a passionate Pies man.
Keep Punching!

He was far better than most journos in his time
Loved his footy and for him it was the stories that were important not his ego

Vale Scottie, great footy journo, simply the best. Keep punching mate.

RIP Meatloaf. Bat out of Hell is one of the best albums ever, every song a classic.
Great partnership with Jim Steinman.
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

I'l confess I thought he was already dead.
Had a colourful life did Fred, pretty bloody good footballer back in the day.
