Dixon's deja-vu
IT WAS deja-vu for Charlie Dixon at the club recently, when a member of his old junior club in Queensland dropped by for a visit. 10-year-old Cairns Saints player Ryan Marsh came along to an open training session at Alberton, sporting the very guernsey Dixon first donned back in the 90s! Cairns-born Dixon chatted with the young fan about footy, his old club and life at Port Adelaide.
Ryan’s dad Ian said it was a real thrill for his son to meet his fellow club alumni and favourite Power player. “I am sure they know what it can mean to a small chap who loves footy and loves watching his Power heroes,” he told portadelaidefc.com.au. Ryan’s family, right back to his great-grandparents, are passionate Port supporters through and through. They continue to bleed black, white and teal despite making the move to Queensland some years ago.“Ryan has been a member since birth, like all of his family…it was interesting hearing Tim Ginever tell Charlie he is representing generations of families, because we really felt that,” Ian said. “I’m glad my son is carrying the torch with today’s boys even though we live all the way north in Cairns.”..........
