As of Tuesday 26 July 2016:

Update on Allen Rugless who is currently in St George Hospital. He has been moved into an Intensive Care Ward. Suffering from Influenza virus A and pneumonia. His condition at this time is the same has made no improvement so neither stepped forward or back. Is getting the right treatment so lets hope he continues to battle on.

As of Friday  29 July 2016, Ruggo is now in a Critical condition but stable.


Some good news people, just got information that Allen Rugless is on the mend he is 100% from what he was from admission to the hospital. Lyn says that the improvement from last night to today is remarkable. He has most of the machines taken off him is giving cheek to the nursing staff this morning.

Lets hope he continues to improve but it looks at this time that he is over the rough part of it. I asked if he is able to have visitors and she said he can but only two at a time. So there you go people latest update on the little bloke.

  • You may already know about it but I believe Allen’s wife Lynn has passed away and her service is at Woranora tomorrow 19/5/22 at 9am to be streamed live. Lynn was also an administrative employee of the NSW Police Force in the early 90’s at the City of Sydney (fomerly NO 1 Division) when I worked there. Allen was also there at that time.
