Australian rules football legend Barrie Robran dies aged 77
Australian rules football champion and AFL Hall of Fame legend Barrie Robran has died at the age of 77.
Robran is widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers South Australia has produced.
His list of honours includes three Magarey Medals and two SANFL premierships, and he was a seven-time North Adelaide best-and-fairest winner.
Robran played 201 games for North Adelaide from 1967 to 1980 and 17 matches for South Australia's state side.
A statue depicting him leaping for a mark was unveiled outside Adelaide Oval in 2014.
He is survived by his wife Taimi and two sons, Jonathon and Matthew.
