ANOTHER MEDAL FOR AGELESS DICKFOS (http://www.aflq.com.au/index.php?id=5&tx_ttnews[pointer]=1&tx_ttnews[tt_news]=316&tx_ttnews[backPid]=129&cHash=b00144f4f4)
Thursday 2 September 2010
One of Queensland football’s greats, Danny Dickfos, continues to win accolades in the shadows of his 40th birthday. The former Brisbane Lions star shared the Bill Ryan Trophy for the best player in Division Two as judged by independent observers on Monday night.
The 2000 Grogan Medallist with the Northern Eagles, formerly Windsor-Zillmere, Dickfos was an icon of that club where he played a record 250-plus senior games. He has spent the last three seasons with Sandgate in the Pineapple Hotel Cup and has the Hawks poised to win their first premiership in this competition after winning the second semi final last weekend.

After playing Teal Cup football for Queensland in 1987 Dickfos spent the next 8 seasons carving out a highly impressive, 100-plus game QAFL career for himself with Windsor Zillmere/North Brisbane, whilst simultaneously rejecting numerous overtures from virtually every AFL club in the land. The reasoning behind these rejections was simple: Dickfos was happy at North, so why risk compromising that happiness by moving to new, uncharted waters?
Such an attitude is almost unheard of these days, and all the more refreshing for it, but ultimately it could not last, and in 1996, aged 26, the hitherto reluctant Dickfos found himself at Brisbane, where his impact was immediate and seismic. After winning the best first year player award in his debut season, he went on to play a total of 65 AFL games for the Bears/Lions.

Humble unassuming guy glad I could score his player worn jumper for my Lions mad Dad when they were selling them straight after the 1996 season in the Bears Shop.
