Sad news today with the passing of Johnny Raper.

Not quite old enough to have seen him play but his status is clear given he is one of the original immortals alongside Bozo.

RIP champion.

Vale Johnny Raper!

Immortal of the game, probably the greatest lock forward to play the game. Veteran of endless premierships at the St George Dragons. Represented his state and country with class.

One of the greatest ever players. RIP Chook!

For mine he will be forever remembered as a traitor to his junior club Newtown, despite whatever it was he achieved for saints, kangaroos, immortals etc.

I’m assuming you’re including fellow Newtown junior and fellow St George great Brian ‘Poppa’ Clay in that assessment?

Not really the time to drain down on someone who has just died Shoe, especially after the horrible nature of his death.

Yeah him too.

Jk, sorry he died and all.
