    Vale Clinton Grybas



    Respected media commentator CLINTON GRYBAS died today at his home in Melbourne.

    Clinton was the main sports reporter on 3AW, and had hosted White Line Fever on the FOX Footy Channel on FOXTEL.
    He also commentated the football for the 2007 Season on both 3AW and Fox Sports.

    On a personal note, I had met Clinton several times during my father's time on the FOX Footy Channel. I found him to be the most considerate, sincere and genuine person you could meet. A true comet of broadcast has died.

    Clinton was 32 years old. Only 32.
