Geoff Robinson, Bulldogs legend, dies at the age of 66

Footy legend Geoff Robinson has tragically died at the age of 66.

Robinson played in 139 first-grade games for the Bulldogs from 1977 to 1984 and made a return to the team in 1986.  

After a long battle with throat cancer, he is believed to have passed away due to a heart attack. 

Robinson was known as 'the wild man' and was recognisable on the field by his trademark shoulder-length black hair. 

'Geoff was the most decent and loyal guy and he was my friend,' said Robinson's  mate and Bulldogs sponsor Arthur Laundy.

'Everyone loved 'Robbo'. They loved the way he played football.'

Former Bulldogs Paul Langmack said: 'He taught me so much.'

This is a breaking story. More to come.
