Well done Trent Hodgkinson

I was gutted to read that the poor little girl who Trent gallantly accompanied to her school formal,unfortunately succumbed to her cancer.I'm glad that a League player helped bring joy to a sick child,Well done to all involved.We do get a bit too overinvested in our support of our game and forget that it is only a game.

  • Well said

  • Well said Tom.
    A friend of mine was the girl's school Principal and involved in organising that. A truly touching gesture from Trent. The entire community up there is deeply saddened.
  • Well said

  • What he did is what our game is about, rip angel.
  • Too right Tom. Trent should be proud of himself and his actions are something all young footballers should aspire to. Champion effort! 

  • Ye it sad to hear she lost her life but she in a better place now
  • Very sad indeed . If only more of these blokes took a leaf out of Trents book and used their status for good instead of having self serving media conferences and making it about me me me .

    Well done to Trent and the organisers . Brought back a few sad and happy memories for me as my cousin died of Cystic and when we were kids Sterlo visited his house by suprise one day when I was there and invited him and myself to a game . It was just a reminder of how happy that made my cousin before he passed .
    • such sad news. Trent has done our game proud in bringing a little bit of sunshine into that little girls short life.

  • So sad such a beautiful girl taken so young. Only the good die young.

  • I really hope the last games she saw were those 3 wins in a row, especially the one against us... She would of been so proud of her team.
