  16. Sympathies to all the Irving family
    Darcy has left us all with strong memories of his contribution to the community and in our case particularly the football club
    His encouragement and enthusiasm was infectious which added to the enjoyment even when we were struggling
    His rub downs were legendary but he could rub the opposition the wrong way
    His support will always remain with us
    Thinking of you all at this difficult time
