  • Wow, so young. He was certainly an interesting character, and a great footballer when he wanted to be.

  • Far too young. Bit of a larrikin as well.

    I think he had a greyhound named Nads. If it was going ok he'd yell out "GO NADS!".

    One more thing to give Manly something to play for as well.

  • Wow, dreadful. I always remember him for him being a class Centre but also a great character. The time where he acted as if he was knocked out and then rolled around back and forth when trainer was near him was hilarious. Also when Ryan Girdler went to his place for Footy Show when all his memorabilia was stolen, he made fun of it with the neighbour mowing his lawn with a Terry Hill Australian jersey.

    Now Manly have extra motivation with a former legend and premiership winner with the club.

          • Because high standard people spend their entire lives on football fan websites picking fights, hating everything and slinging pathetic, juvenile slurs. 

  • Life is too short. Tomorrow is not guaranteed for any of us, yesterday is gone. Live today, love someone, try and make someone smile. 

    52! Too young. 

    • Rip Terry hill 

       

      Well said bob

  • One of the very few Manly players I didn't detest. 

    RIP.

  • Unbelievable aye. One of my favourite opposition players ever. Loved to watch him play.

    Far too young 52 and makes you wonder about your own mortality. Life's too short.

    RIP Terry.

  • RIP Tezza. Taken way to early. One of the very few manly players I didnt hate. Life is to short. I am currently sitting in Blacktown Hospital with heart issues and had an angiogram today. Luckily came back all clear but now have to have the shock treatment on my heart as it is working only at 20%. 

    Condolences to the Hill family.
