Chester Willams. R.I.P.
Bok legend Chester Williams dies
Legendary 1995 World Cup-winning Springbok wing Chester Williams passed away on Friday at the age of 49.
That hurts.
Shared two beers with him in the HK football club once. Lovely bloke, massive smile and was really cool about life. I didn’t think he looked in great health then tho - had that really uncomfortable bloated look to him.
A true icon of the game and South Africa.

Far too young, RIP fella

Sad news. The mortality rate from that 95 final must be above average, no?

Man, I hope the rest of that team are seeing their doctors. Terrible mortality rate for guys way to close to my age.
Seemed like a nice guy, a shame.
I also hope Jeff Wilson has regular check ups, he's the only wing left from the final.

When they're younger than you it hits you in the face.
(Unlike Chester I was lucky enough to survive my heart attack at age 49.)
Sad loss.

Fern rhymes with stern, as in stuff, made of.

Which match were you watching?
RIP Chester.
Heh. Could bore you with the story but won't. Good Dad joke when I can say "don't you know I've got a heart condition?".
But this thread is about important people not me.
