News Chris Toce Passes Away

[_RT_]

No, Tom was asked to take it down, and he did.

Tom heard Blair say it and reported it, and then the club asked him to delete. He's done the right thing here.

Correct, we jumped on it here as well just out of respect

The media can be grubs but they did right this time

What awful news

RIP

 

[DontArgue4]

Incredibly upsetting. Sounds like he was a fantastic bloke and an amazing recruiter. Life is far too short.

Rest in Peace Chris

 

[A Bit Dusty]

Vale Chris

Actually, the right thing to do would have been to not post it in the first place, not have to be told to take it down
Absolute grubs with no respect

Outrageously tragic. So young

Horrible news! Condolences to his family and friends

Heartbreaking. Tocey will be looking out from us above!

With all the work Chris and the recruiting department have put in this year, I have no doubt he will leave an amazing legacy at Richmond. RIP

Exactly
. He should've waited until the club made an announcement

Very Sad news , RIP Chris..

I was so happy when we bought him to our club. He did a great job at Saints, so naturally Ross sacked him.
Clearly a diligent, smart yet humble operator. His poor family. I am sure the club will get around them.
Let’s nail these trades in his memory.

From what I can gather Blair mentioned it during his press conference that he made early this afternoon to the media and media personnel who were attending updated the news live feeds assuming it was free to report

They probably could of used some better judgement but don’t think it’s worth hanging them for it either

I am very sad to hear this. I had some interactions with him many years ago. He grew up a big Hawk fans. A good person. Thoughts with his loved ones.

And was known to a few in media a fair while ago too. And nobody went near mentioning it.

Maybe to be expected, but thank heavens the Daily Mail doesn’t do footy

Blair had mentioned something about it at his presser, hence the media reporting it. The club then requested that it was pulled out of respect.

Sour note to a trade week for us
Everyone had good things say about him
RIP

Agree, I don't think the intention if the post was to break the news, he seemed to be genuinely paying tribute. Still could've been more careful though.

More importantly, let's hope the club and community wrap around his family, colleagues and friends. Life can be ****ing brutal sometimes.

Vale Chris.

Thoughts with your family

 

[captain cotch 9]

RIP Chris.

Well done Blair, that would of been tough

 

[fargothegreat]

I was up and about because I felt like we'd "won" the trade period, but this is very sad news.

Was looking forward to seeing Toce do his thing. Had shown a lot of promise and from all reports was a great bloke.

 

[Red Pill]

Absolutely devastating news

Condolences to the family

Fly high Chris

 

[AstuteTiger]

To think Chris has been fighting his own battle with cancer and still doing what he can for the club in the upcoming draft.

May he rest in peace
