Bibliogryphon 9,571 Posted July 24, 2019 The Telegraph finally came through with an Obit for Sir Rex Richards (behind the paywall) but its all a bit pointless. Done here because he died before Stevas and he was my R pick in the ABC dead pools but he went in the closed season. Oh well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
