Need help - VFL identity dies in Kings Cross

[ceehook2]

asking for some help here , the brain cells are fading with age

I had a recollection that an AFL/VFL identity (not Ablett snr)
either died or was found over dosed in Kings Cross could have been in the 90's or early 2000's ???

I was thinking Alan Aylett. but I think that might wrong

Yep. Think it was someone who'd had earlier involvement with the Tigers n then became an administrator for the AFL. Was helping get Sydaknee established up there at the time maybe. Wasn't Aylett. Who was the whizz bang young sports admin that was involved at Richmond when K.B. got sacked n he refused to even talk to him for 30 years, also went on to CEO or whatever at the Frockers early days. Think it was his old man, family were long time involved in VFL / AFL footy. Found the name I was thinking of, Alan Schwab.

Old mate Schwabby was a very naughty boy, methadone n hookers. If you're gunna mess up at least mess up properly.

From memory he was the person in the VFL/AFL who oversaw the relocation of south Melbourne to Sydney

Think it was The Truth who found the lady Billy was with, working in an electronics store - screwing the knobs off old speakers.

If ya gotta go, then ya gotta go. Can't think of a better way of waltzing off the face of the earth than going in the middle of one of life's few genuine pleasures.
