Rest in peace Eddie the voice of Welsh rugby

I'm English, for me he's the voice of Rugby in general. It will never be the same.

Found this today on hearing the news that Eddie Butler has died. An epic voice. RIP.

[@youngyy4895]

No one will ever get me pumped up for the match the way Eddie butlers commentary did, I watch this before going to watch Wales every time🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿. Rest In Peace

[@habib-mf1fu]

A legend. I get goosebumps everytime I hear his voice. Will be sadly missed

[@DRM1891]

As soon as I heard his voice I teared up a bit. What a tragic loss. Rest in peace, Eddie Butler.

[@eugenemorice8545]

I'm a Cornishman with a dad born in Swansea and I found this at the end of the Scrum V tribute to Eddie. It's a beautifully written piece by a man with a wonderful command of language.... and it made me cry..... God rest ya Eddie

Eddie Butler - the Pride of Wales.

[@davidjessup427]

The six nations will never be the same again. 😢 His voice was such a special part of the tournament.

[@renegadeoffunk32]

His son Jack was a friend of mine at Newcastle University. Just read this news on BBC. So incredibly sad. He was the voice of Rugby and filled us with so many happy memories. May he rest in peace.

Eddie Butler, a voice from Wales whose echo stretched far beyond Wales.

[@conrad152]

Eddie Butler a brilliant wordsmith, with a sublime voice and a wonderful man, I can't believe he's gone.

[@niallevans3315]

Bless you Eddie. Listening to the rugby won't be the same without you. RIP

[@garethjones6566]

R.I.P Eddie a true Welsh legend and a lovely bloke. I met him once and he was such a pleasant guy. He will be sadly missed.

[@conor7841]

No doubt the dragon flew extra high in the sky to get this Welsh legend to heaven he deserves, Thank you Eddie and RIP 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@thomasreger6392]

Eddie's voice will never be forgotten. Ruhe in Frieden

[@garethprice7405]

To think this was just the script for a TV trailer ... but Eddie created a scintillating poem on modern Welsh culture and character. Eddie was a remarkable writer, broadcaster and orator. Uniquely talented among sports journalists. It is so saddening that we've lost him. I hope the BBC have properly archived all the montage voiceover scripts he created - across many sports. I could listen to them again and again, as well as his many history documentaries. RIP Eddie, a true Welsh Great.

[@MegaHooper25]

His intros to the six nations gave me chills.

[@TheOliverthompson]

Eddie you were the voice of a Nation. The six nations will not be the same without you.

[@Crooksey]
