A club and a community have been plunged into grief following the tragic death of 15-year-old Gundagai Tigers league player Lui Polimeni.
His parents on Wednesday made the heart-wrenching decision to turn off his life support after a 72-hour bedside vigil at the Canberra Hospital.
Lui died soon after 4pm.
Lui suffered a severe concussion during his side’s under 16s match with Tumut on Sunday and was airlifted to hospital.
He is being remembered as a talented footballer with a passion for the game, his family and his friends.
