Can't believe a bloke who trashed the place gets a tribute. Classic Christ's College – always trying to polish the turd.
mate. They wouldn't give him the time of day when he was alive.
they are just covering their arses. Same old story.
He was a legend though. Been to plenty of old boys' events and they still go on about him. Fair play.
a better tribute than the crap they usually churn out. At least they acknowledged him.
what's with schools forgetting the good times? my old man went there and reckons they flogged him with a ruler lol

fair call, but the guy had some stories. Apparently the masters were absolute wankers.
Sam Neill was a treasure. RIP. Even if he hated the place, he still made something of himself.
oath. That memoir was an eye-opener for those who think private schools are all sunshine.
Yeah nah the bloke wrote a memoir saying it was a dump, but they still claim him. That's just PR.
PR or not, he deserves the recognition. One of the best.
He was one of the best actors this country has produced. Let the man rest.
I'm more surprised they didn't try to muzzle him while he was alive. Typical establishment BS.
least he got the last laugh. RIP to a real one.
Worked on a set with him once. Deadset legend. Didn't care about the school drama, just loved acting.
So they celebrate him now he's dead but probably gave him grief when he spoke out. Hypocrites.
