RIP Scott Hastings

[AndyRM]

The Scottish rugby legend has passed away following complications with his cancer treatment.

Sad news indeed for the rugby world.

Only 61 as well.

 

[Beebo]

Just saw that whilst watching the women’s 6N and watched Brian Moore give his tribute on TV.
Very sad news, he was always overshadowed by his brother, but still a great player.

Great player and by all accounts a good bloke. Very sad to hear that.

A superior player to Gavin IMO.

Sad news

A superior player to Gavin IMO.

More skilful certainly, Gavin was just really intelligent and cool under pressure.

Yeah, that's a better/fairer way of putting it. Some of the pressure on Big Gav's kicks must have been unreal.

 

[steveindenmark]

Thats sad, especially at that age.

He died on his wifes birthday. She died 2 years ago, aged 60. She walked into the sea while suffering with depression.

I saw both brothers play at Twickenham.

RIP
