    Rugby mourns the passing of Roy Prosser

    Australian Rugby is in mourning following the sudden death of former long-serving Wallabies forward Roy Prosser.



    Once Australia’s most-capped prop with 25 Test appearances from 1967-1972, Prosser passed away in Brisbane last night following a heart attack.

    “Let me put it this way, A Springbok team contains Afrikaners, Englishmen, coloureds and blacks. It has parochial foes in Bulls, Sharks, Stormers, Cheetahs and Lions. It is a recipe for war! Yet in all the years of John Smit’s captaincy, there has never been one unhappy customer, not one voice of rebellion against his leadership. He is the glue that holds the Springboks together. The man is a legend!”- Jake White

    i feel embarrassed by not knowing who he was, one excuse is that he played 'before my time'.
    but a genuine Aussie Wallaby it seems, most capped prop even.

    Gone to pack into that great scrum machine in the sky, rip prosser...
    Do you think that in heaven he would be able to run like a back and still be a forward ('cause why would you play anywhere else), that would be heavenly...
