The Walsh family have released a statement thanking everyone for their 'overwhelming kindness' after the death of Adelaide coach Phil Walsh.
"We wish to thank everyone for their overwhelming kindness, sympathy and support during this most difficult time," the statement read.
"We take comfort in knowing that so many people are thinking of Phil, and us.
"Our hearts are broken. How much we miss him is beyond measure.
"Our lives will never be the same, now that Phil is gone. But we will forever love and cherish him."
The Walsh family said that they are coping as best they can.
"Phil enriched our lives and the lives of so many, and for that we are eternally grateful.
"We are searching for the strength and will to deal with the loss of Phil. In the arms of those we love we are coping as best we can.
"We kindly request that our privacy be respected at this time so we can grieve as any family would wish to do in such circumstances."
Living in Northern NSW i’m more a league fan however i’m a huge Richmond fan. I would like to pass on my condolences to the Walsh family and friends this is a tragic incident that no one should need to go through.
To the teams on the weekend congratulations to the way you conducted yourself, to see what happened at the end of each game was really touching, the AFL community really do stand together as one, the NRL could definately learn a thing or two.
Really well said Yellow and Black, thanks for sharing.
Zero Hanger is this only a new site compared to Zero Tackle? Just wondering because there’s no other comments on any of the news stories.
Yes it is, we just started the site a few months ago
