Nearly posted this thread earlier myself. Very sad and hope he pulls through. I know he's 89 but he's a character we sort of hope will be around forever. Get well soon Murray.

Real gent of the sport. Good luck Murray

That's sad news. I didn't realise he was so old, still seems so much younger. I hope he gets better.

Love the guy, everyone dies eventually, but I hope he is ok.....dread the day he leaves us. Will shed a tear when that day comes. Hope he has many years with us left to come.

Really sad to see this, I hope he can pull through and keeps enjoying his life.

Yeah it's difficult at this age but hopefully he has a few years left in the tank. Good luck MW.

I hope he beats the cancer.

In a strange way, his recent fall may have been a blessing in disguise as it seems to be what lead to the early detection of his cancer. Hopefully the treatment will allow him to make a swift and full recovery.
