Inaugural AFL premiership player of the PAFC is something to be pretty proud of.
The boys must to get a win for him. You do not under any circumstances, send champions of your club out with a loss.
Congratulations Dom on a fine career.

He never has that air of arrogance about him and is nice to everyone having never got carried away with his own stardom. Says a lot about the character of the bloke. One of those guys who never had shit games. he was consistent, hard at it, highly under rated and often inspirational.
I for one will miss him playing for the Power. its really easy to cheer for good blokes.

I've been saying that for weeks now, and now my wife has jumped on board.
Butcher is going to have to do something remarkable if he wants to keep his spot on the list next season.

Hard to watch a man so jovial around the playing group react like that.
Get a win for him port- 14 years of magnificent service and a champion of this mighty footy club.

Videos like this is what Port have started doing really well this season and I wish AFC did it more. They have made the club and the inner workings very accessible to the supporters which I think is great.

The article was talking about giving up a 2nd round pick for him as being "a good deal for both clubs".
No superlatives would adequately describe the win for Port in that trade

Yep- my eyes welled when he spoke about how proud he was to be a one club player.
Looking forward to getting there on sunday to send him off (hopefully) in style.
