Very sad. RIP, Eddie Butler...

My god, always looked fit as a fiddle as well

His Cardiff Swansea prologue for our first meeting in the premier league still sticks in my mind.

Very sad indeed- r.i.p. Sympathies to his family.

Gutted.
Great commentator and Welshman.
RIP Eddie.

Very sad news, RIP

Very sad.
Always interesting to listen to and relatively young at 65.

R.I.P.

Absolutely gutted and shocked.
Great commentator and person.
Very proud Welshman.
Will be greatly missed.
Rest in peace big fella

Gutted.
I read earlier that his death means there's no one suitable to voice over his own tribute. He was the only man for the job.
RIP

Very articulate and talented man.RIP Eddie.

I had the pleasure of meeting him in 2021 and had a wonderful conversation with him about the the British Lions.

Another true gentleman of sport and Welsh another loss to us and especially his family.

Thank you Eddie, RIP fella.

RIP Legend

This is quite shocking......and there for the grace of god go I.

A true Gentleman and legend in his sport.

RIP Eddie, my heart and sincere condolences go out to your family and friends.

RIP Eddie, along with his dad he was a regular at Ninian park in his younger days.

I met Eddie on a number of occasions One of my boys played rugby with his son in Abergavenny A true gentleman RIP

Awful news. The tributes online, in particular from Brian Moore, speak volumes of how highly he was thought of.

RIP.
