RIP the "voice of rugby"

[Prestwick]

A man who splintered the defences of television sports commentary but kept a foot in touch like a rampaging wildebeest when it came to his adoring fans who swooned like the last daffodils of spring at his every verbal quip and analogy. A man who defined Rugby commentary and set the bar which since his sad departure from this earth has yet to be beaten.

And maybe it should be left that way for there simply cannot be another Bill McLaren.
