Just saw that Sam Backo is in a serious condition in hospital after suffering a massive heart attack. I hope he pulls through, he is such a character.

Yes, sure was a character.
All the best for him.

Slamming Sam is a legend.
I hope he recovers.
I have a funny story of him but will tell it at a later time.

Best wishes Sammy. One of the real characters in the game.

Canberra legend Sam Backo is making a miraculous recovery from a massive heart attack that had him on the verge of death.

Backo was placed in an induced coma after collapsing at his Cairns home 10 days ago and doctors and family feared the worst.

But his wife Chrissy has told the Raiders that the big prop is doing much better.
