Patrick Dangerfield watched last year’s AFL grand final parade with envy. His team had just been eliminated in a painful preliminary final defeat to the Lions, and so to see Brisbane captain Harris Andrews enjoying the spotlight was not easy.
“Watching Harris on the back of a ute, I was envious, absolutely,” he says at the start of Friday’s proceedings at Melbourne Park. “There’s nothing like it, it’s a wonderful feeling that you’re in the biggest game of the year and you’re a live chance and it’s all ahead of you.”
