Sam Backo – a larger-than-life front-rower who represented Queensland and Australia in the 1980s – has died.

Backo, 64, had been in intensive care at Cairns Hospital after being diagnosed with melioidosis - a bacterial infection - in April.

Recent media reports stated Backo may have contracted the soil-borne tropical disease while swimming in Freshwater Creek at Goomboora Park in Cairns.

Backo had been transferred to a Brisbane hospital but returned to Cairns where he passed on Sunday afternoon surrounded by family and friends.

They will have massive issues getting a competitive team together, and with rugby360 throwing cash around, it will only get worse. Looking forward to them folding in quick time like the losers they have always been. And meninga is hardly the coaching genius they need to somehow be competitive from day one.
