That is devastating. Seemed like a great guy, a saints great that was liked by everybody in the AFL community. I loved his work on the bounce too. My thoughts are with his family. He will be missed.

A mate from Ballarat said he was battling mentally and had been living out of the family home recently. So things weren’t good for him and given it was his birthday yesterday it’s likely things unfortunately came to a head.
So sad.
Great to see they hash tagged it, so they had the best possible chance of breaking the news to his family.
Maybe a bit unfair, they are all running with it at the same time so more likely the media has given them the details. The police had just spent 10 mins with the media before the 6pm news.
■■■■■.
If it is Frawley then that’s terrible.
I’m probably one of the few that liked his banter on The Bounce with Dunstall (at least up until a few years ago).
I didn’t mind him as a coach. Really loved when he said ‘every dog has his day’ when Libba and Knights went at it in 2000 (or was it 99).
Liked his passion as a player. Always gave his all for a club littered with failure.
RIP

Well said Blummers.
Vale Danny Frawley. One of the good guys associated with the AFL. You will be missed but remembered.
Sad news. I hope his family and friends have support at this terrible time.
As others have said - tragic, sad & devastating for family & friends. Thoughts are with them all.

That’s just ■■■■. So sad. RIP Spud
Shocking news. RIP Spud
Very sad to hear the news. Danny was a great media personality. Used to love listen to him on the MMM commentary. He was very big on men’s health and helped alot of guys struggling with anxiety and depression. Really feel for his family. He will be missed. R. I. P.

Yep it gets to them. My dad was a fireman and said similar. Having to use jaws of life to cut open cars and retrieve mangled bodies including children was easily the worst part of his job

So so tragic
thought he was excellent as a special comments man on radio.
Great player too
Apparently one of his daughters works at SEN. That must have been a difficult situation
