RIP Ross Booth - DJC - 06-05-2024
Ross Booth called the VFA footy on ABC TV with Phil Cleary and Peter Gee. An understated but knowledgeable commentator that let the action do the talking.
Ross was recently found deceased in his Toorak flat, a residence that Phil would often refer to in order to light-heartedly accuse Ross of being a Toorak toff. Ross was in his early 70s.
Ross was a midfielder for Monash Blues in the 1970s when they were one of the VAFA powerhouses. I probably played in opposing teams but I don’t remember him from those days. I suspect that experience helped to make him a knowledgeable, accurate and entertaining commentator.
RIP Ross Booth.
