What a man. In Britain everyone still talks about Arthur. RIP Mr. Beetson.

What a great man and a wonderful tribute to a legend of Rugby League.

He was one of those rare players you never appreciated just how good he was until he wasn't a player anymore.

He was an icon from the get-go. Came to Balmain in 66. Represented Australia same year. Started origin single-handedly.

When I was a kid around 1976 or 77 my folks were members of easts leagues. The club would hire out Luna Park for the members Xmas party for them and their families. I was 4 or 5 years old and I was sitting at the top of the really steep slide at coney Island not feeling real keen to go down this imposing looking slide. As I sat there staring at the big drop I felt a giant hand in my back with an accompanying 'here you go kid'. As I turned around I will never forget Artie's unshaven face and not knowing what scared me more, Artie or the drop. What a champion.

When I was as a young bloke playing front row for Belrose United in Sydney my dad would always say to me watch Beetson , see how he always gets his pass away and I did watch he was a great player

As an old Wests fan gotta say I Love Arthur. His friendship with Tommy speaks for itself. Two of the best.
