Long story short, after meeting petracca at a training thing through a friend that know Roosy, this kid with muscular dystrophy is now facebook friends with truck, and truck is (out if his own pocket, not the clubs) flying this kid Lucas and his dad to the game this week from Hobart.

That is simply awesome.. Hope he jags 5 this week and puts on a show for the little bloke

 

[PerfectFooty]

What a arrogant, bad egg he is for doing that!

Just disgraceful isn't it? No wonder he failed his personality test at the Saints

 

[Headless]

Great story. Thanks for sharing.

******* incredible stuff. I wonder how much this all has to do with the time away from the game he's had. By his own admission he's matured a lot, could turn out to be the best thing for him in the long run.

 

[Dez!]

Good on the club especially Christian, seems like they all got around the young fella.

Ripper story.

Nah it's gotta be because I was getting intohim over a perceived arrogance. Hearing this though, he can be as arrogant as he wants. That shows love for another human. Just all round awesome in my eyes.

Reckon he'll get a Brownlow vote or 2 in his 1st game.

 

[Gysberts2Bate]

Reckon he'll get a Brownlow in his 1st season.

Settle down mate.

 

[Cannon82]

I think he'll play well on debut, and on an unrelated note I've bought a large tube of hand lotion and several boxes of moist towelettes.

Great story; good young lad. Wife pointed out that that's the kind of class we can/should expect from a demon. Although I'm sure there are plenty of guys from other clubs that do/have done similar. Except Port, of course those campaigners

 

[wowlace]

Settle down mate.

Probably kick 3-4 goals too.

That makes me so proud to be a Melbourne supporter, damn. Reminds me of when Watts and Jonesy went up to see that young fella and his dad in Sydney.

MFC fans' way of rewarding Jack for it: years of personal abuse.

Well he should've thought of that before we drafted him at number 1

Don't know If something happened to the young fella but that videos not on the Internet anymore

Trac will take 7 marks 14 touches and 2.1

The father was the one with cancer, not the kid. I just looked as well and couldn't find it, sad story. Hope the kid is going OK.

Wasn't there a story going round actually that the dad had swindled a few clubs

Yep, now you mention it I think he was scamming the clubs, pretty sure he didn't even have cancer.

Well that certainly ruins what was a beautiful story
