    JT Taylor Vs Pancreatic Cancer

    I know some of you know JT, and other know of him.

    Perhaps a few would like to help him in his current battle with cancer. he's always been a great supporter of Perth rugby, and the refs too.

    Unfortunately JT today Lost his battle with cancer after putting up one hell of a fight.

    Condolences to his family and friends.

    JT was highly respected among those in club rugby land having held head coaching position at both Baysie and Palmyra who now contest the JT cup each year.

    A great man and coach who will be sourly missed.

    RIP Coach.

    It's sure to be a big game at Baysie this week as they celebrate the 10th anniversary of the 07 premiership of which JT was the head coach.

    A comment that JT made one day will forever stick in my mind. 'It's all about the kids'. That pretty much sums up the huge contribution he made to local club rugby. RIP JT.

    Wests Scarborough 1st Grade juggernaut has played finals rugby each and every year since its inception and continues this remarkable feat yet again this season and unbelievably it's still rolling on and as an added little circle jerk for the masses Wests actually hold the record for the current longest unbroken finals record.

    A very much respected and admired human being, family man, coach, player and member of his communities.

    I was the richer for knowing him.

    Vale John.

    Condolences to Jackie and his family.

    A man who lived and breathed the game, seemed to know anyone of any note in nz and wa involved in rugby and earned the respect of everyone he met.

    A great coach who always gave the young ones time and an opportunity.

    You fought long and hard John; we were all so honoured to have known you.

    Condolences to Jacqui and family.

    RIP JT. Your legacy lives on in so many.

    An absolute gentleman. His knowledge of the game and commitment to Rugby in WA was astonishing.

    We had some good chats on the sideline his counsel was often gratefully received.

    A legend of our community has gone, however his legacy will remain forever.

    Rest In Peace JT. See you again one day.

    Had the honour to see JT coach and to see how he went about turning average Baysie first grade players into a Premiership winning team in 2007. Always had time for the kids at the club, always there to watch us coach teaching us the small things that others over look, biggest honour was to receive the JT Taylor coaching award for best coach U11-U/16 in 2011 presented by JT himself.
    Very very sad a legend to the game has passed away but he is now coaching the boys in heaven RIP Bro

    I very much regret that I will be unable to attend as I have commitments which prevent me from doing so.

    Again, my heartfelt sympathy to Jacqui, his children, and family.

    I regret I also have commitments tomorrow, otherwise I would most certainly have attended. I will pause to reflect around 10:30. Damn fine bloke.
