    The Wests Tigers will retire the number seven jersey this weekend in a touching tribute to former halfback Tommy Raudonikis

    The Wests Tigers will retire the number seven jersey this weekend in a touching tribute to former halfback Tommy Raudonikis

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    The larger-than-life ex-Wests, New South Wales and Kangaroos legend died at the age of 70 this week, causing an outpouring of grief in the rugby league community.

    His beloved Wests will honour him by putting their halfback in another jersey and draping a seven jersey on the first chair of the team's bench for each grade it has a team entered this week, including NRL.
