A lot of us would remember Sir Bill McLaren as the voice of rugby, but since he passed away Eddie Butler had certainly taken over that mantle. Not just as the voice of rugby in Wales, but of the Six Nations as a whole.
He had the ability to put the right words in the right context and the right tone, not just for a rugby match but for everything he did, like the wonderful tribute he put together for the late Phil Bennett. His voice was one you could listen talk about pretty much everything and anything.
In a sense, he's very similar to Huw Edwards. His work in covering the death of the Queen has been a credit to Huw and to us here in Wales. We were lucky to have Huw and Eddie.
