Bloody hell! 45 years old, died today of a brain tumour.

A quirky writer with a bent for political and sporting stories, columnist with style.

His book on the Fremantle Dockers, who he was a passionate supporter of, was a wonderful look at an underachieving football franchise.

Whether you loved him or loathed him, Price was a wonderful writer.

RIP.

Yes, really sad.

Easily the best of the Australian's writers, always entertaining and sensible.
