AFL great Robert Walls, who won multiple premierships as a player and coach at Carlton, has died aged 74.
The Australian Football Hall Of Fame member had been diagnosed with cancer two years ago and he died on Thursday morning.
Walls, who also coached the Brisbane Lions and Richmond, played in Carlton's 1968, '70 and '72 premiership teams.
He then coached the Blues to the 1987 flag and is a club legend.
A tough centre half-forward, Walls played 259 games for Carlton and Fitzroy from 1967-80.
He immediately went into coaching, first at Fitzroy and then the Blues, Lions and Tigers.
A famously combative personality, after his coaching career ended in 1997 Walls became a respected AFL commentator.
His wife Erin died of cancer in 2006, soon after his Hall Of Fame induction. He is survived by three children and partner Julie.
