Meant to post this earlier, but it completely slipped my mind.
I think to many people Baxter is known as 'the cancer kid in Year of the Dogs', and while his AFL career was effectively ended by the disease, it's great to see him making progress. While travelling this year, he was talked into trying to get a game at East Perth. He broke into the seniors during the season and yesterday helped them to their third flag in a row in his 12th game for the club.
I love a good news story.
