A gentleman on and off the pitch. God bless him.
RIP John Pullin. That lovely west country accent. What a gent. We'll always have a tough match with the Irish but a pint afterwards whether rugby, football or whatever.
John Pullin, RIP. One of the 'greats' that I grew up with as an avid supporter of IRELAND.
An England player that thoroughly deserves teh plaudits from across the rugby fraternity.
A splendid example of why 'respect' is such an inmportant elemnt of our sport.
Great player in his day and nice man to go with it,rip.
RIP, Bristol’s greatest ever player.
Modest giant of the amateur era. Sad to hear news of his passing today.
and he was also a part of "that try" :)
Pullin captained England to victories over the Boks 1972 and ABs 1973 on their home soils. Was hooker for the Lions series win against the ABs 1971 and just missed playing the Lions winning series win against the Boks in 1974.
Hero
@3.08 well said. A cap for 30 seconds of International rugby. Daft.
Why any Irishman would have a Sir in front of his name is beyond me.
So what .
Which illness did he die of?
