Andrew Symonds will forever be fondly remembered as a real character, and that shone through in his final text to Steve Crawley - the boss of Fox Sports, where the former Australia star worked as a commentator.
The cricket world continues to mourn the death of the former batting all-rounder, who passed away aged just 46 this past weekend following a tragic car accident. The star was a livewire on the field but off it, he had a great sense of humour.
And according to the Courier Mail , Symonds sent a message to Crawley, which was reported to have contained a snapshot of news regarding Tom Brady’s salary - with the NFL great reported to be getting paid a staggering $540million over 10 years to work as a commentator for Fox in the US. This prompted Symonds to say to Crawley: ”Crawls, we need to talk. Roy.”
