Bob Willis was as sharp with the mic as he was with the ball 🎙️⚡ From keepers looking like “performing seals at feeding time” 🦭 to underperformers fit for “stocks in Leeds town square” — his one-liners were unforgettable. Which was your favourite?

🚫 Myth: Men get called for a PSA test at 45. ✅ Truth: This isn’t the case, which is why it’s so important to know your risk and speak to your GP. Early diagnosis saves lives.

Bob Willis wasn’t just a cricket legend — he was a poet at heart. 💙✍️ His father-of-the-bride speech was written entirely in verse, and he even penned this touching poem to Jimmy Anderson when he passed Ian Botham’s record. A true wordsmith, on and off the field

After Sir Chris Hoy shared his diagnosis, a friend pushed for a test — despite having no symptoms. It caught prostate cancer early, and he’s doing well. 💙 A reminder: don’t wait for symptoms. Get checked.
