Remember Shane News Today

Eddie McGuire has said the way Shane Warne and his ex-wife Simone Callahan maintained an amicable relationship after years of scandals is something we can all learn from.

The actress had been expected to make an appearance during Wednesdays service at the MCG which was attended by 50,000 fans and a Whos Who of Australian society.

Crowd erupts in laughter at Warnne’s memorial service.

The British actress was noticeably absent from the emotional scenes at the Melbourne Cricket Ground on Wednesday - with no video tribute played following her heartbreaking Instagram posts.

Australias greatest sportsman was getting up to high jinks as a teenager when he jumped from a pier - but knocked himself out and only the quick-thinking actions of a mate saved him.

For all the Hollywood stars and rock stars, the true stars of Shane Warnes memorial service at the MCG were his heartbroken family - whose pain was felt and shared by the nation.
