Talk:Steve Rogers (rugby league)

Suicide?
how did he die


 * Heart attack. It is in the article under Life After Football.--dan, dan and dan 23:16, 3 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Make that suicide. See today's paper, and the updated article.--dan, dan and dan 21:38, 4 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I'm not so sure about that, today's paper is saying that the coroner is still investigating. It's likely that it was an accidental death (alcohol + antidepressants)


 * Not very accidental! People Know not to mix those meds with alcohol especially the amounts it would've taken to kill yourself.


 * To wiki editors, coroner rules it accidental in news today

Categorised as Austn Businessman
I suppose he may have been a businessman at some point since he had a career after football; but the article doesn't actually say that and only refers to him being a Rugby League administrator. Like so many coaches I expect that only justifies him being left as a sportsman or RL player rather than a businessman. Will delete that Cat unless I hear an objection.- Sticks  66  12:39, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Place of birth
I am sceptical of the claim Steve was born on the Gold Coast. He went to school in the Sutherland Shire, Sutherland North PS and Jannali Boys High and had family nearby. He was in the year above me. He was a genuine athlete, competing as a sprinter in school carnivals and equally adept at soccer and rugby league. Always played for NSW though that may have been before the Origin concept. Curious whether Steve had some Aboriginal heritage. 124.254.80.98 (talk) 00:47, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
