    A young girl was in a bit of trouble…got swept out, her sister/cousin swam over to help and it took a few surfies to bring them in. Beach patrol and paramedics came over eventually (not a patrolled beach). Girls were okay.

    I was helping to keep them warm and stable along with Patrick Dangerfield (Geelong cats captain) who was there with his family.

    The girls mum was so grateful to us (we lent them ouot towels).

    My kids got to chat with Dangerfield and were starstruck.

        Yeah ain’t no lie…we had a few big swells.

        You gotta be careful and swim at patrolled beaches.

      Glad it all came off ok and the girl was ok. Must have been really scary for her.

      And Dangerfield. You lucky duck!

        I don’t know shit about footy…but I’ll cheer for him anytime.

        Absolute gentleman, family man and just a gem of a person.

        You’re lucky to have him as a captain.
