Thank you so much for sharing this this morning Cricket Australia❤️ Geoff “Popeye” had the privilege of spending over 25 years with the touring teams, and the friendships and memories made along the way mean the world to us.
We’ll never forget the kindness shown during my cancer treatment — the 100 roses waiting in our upgraded hotel room, the whole team and their wives joining us for my birthday dinner before I started a second course of chemotherapy, and the huge lemon meringue cake they arranged because they knew it was my favourite.
Geoff is now hoping to share some of his funny, moving and unforgettable behind-the-scenes stories at cricket club dinners, sportsman’s dinners, events and podcasts.
Once part of the cricket family, always part of the cricket family. Thank you, Cricket Australia. 🇦🇺🏏
