Heard it this morning like the rest of us, but it hadn't really sunk in until now. I didn't want to believe it and I still don't want to. :'(

Will be weird never having him as commentator again. Sad day for cricket, but also good to look back at all his best work, whether it was playing or commentating. Won't ever be forgotten.

Been apart of the summer of cricket in my life for.... my life.

No more chew for chewhundred and chwenty chew or any more beige jackets in the commentary box.

A couple of my favourite Richie quotes

"He's usually a good puller - but he couldn't get it up that time."

"Well, Bruce Reid is not the worst batsman there is at international level ? but those who are worse would not need to hire the Myer Music Bowl to hold a convention."

Pretty much the same for me mate and im 50.
