They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.
Huge honour for the kid to play his first game in Bob and Boydy's last game as well as Hodge's.

Patrick gets his jumper presented by one of my favourite players from the 80s Steve Super McPherson.

It's better to die on our feet than live on our knees.
Patrick was a Doggies fan before joining us which is great.
Good luck tomorrow night Patrick and hopefully you play a part in getting us the win that keeps our finals hopes alive for 2017.

Good luck to young pat
Good luck Lipper - have enjoyed watching you grow in the VFL and now getting a chance to play your first game in the big dance!
Anyone can support a team that is winning, it takes no courage. But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you, that takes a lot of courage, so lets always be behind our boys and girls in red, white and blue.
