RIP Shane Tuck

[Faz 2000]

Aww, that's no good. He was a good, rough tractor of a player. I bet he was a very popular teammate and club man. Tough news for such a young man.

Tears in the eyes... so,so saddened by this.

Devastated

 

[Tenacious T]

Terrible and tragic news.
Met him at the doctors while he and my son were waiting for hearing test results few years back and was as genuine and down to earth as you could get.
One of those gutsy hard tough footballers who never shirked an issue.
Unbelievable and very sad loss.
RIP Tiger

Tragic news. Sincere condolences to the Tuck family, Richmond Football club and all Tiger supporters. R.I.P. Tucky.

An honest, hard-working player who gave his all for the club through some pretty dark times. Loved watching him go in and win the ball as a kid. RIP.

My thoughts go out to his family and loved ones.

Gutted. He was one of the most fierce and courageous players we had. He was always one of favourites.

He attended my sister's wedding. Down to earth and a pleasure to talk to. He was tough and honest on the field, and looked after our developing mids such as Lids and Cotch. Shattered by this news. RIP Tucky.

Absolutely devastating.

A bright light in some pretty dark times for the club he was.

Rest in peace, Tucky.

This bloke always tried his guts out, always put his head over it. Loved the way he played.

Never easy to follow in your father's foot steps when he set such a high standard, always admired how Shane was able to go to the Tigers and make his own legacy

I loved the way Tuck went about it. Loved his dour approach and the way he fought his way back when written off and am surprised and saddened at the news of this.

 

[Elmer_Hauser]

Really saddened and shocked reading this news.

Always admired Shane Tuck as a player (whom I felt got the best our of himself representing your club.

I cannot imagine the devastation his family (esp his champion Father and Wife and Kids) are going through.

The footy community mourns as one. Hope you guys can beat the Giants in Shane's memory..

The depths that mental health issues can take just don’t discriminate, we as men need to take better care of ourselves and speak up and talk if we’re having troubles.
Always somebody who is able to listen and help.
