Paul EDBROOKE (Frankston) (10:05): I also want to give a huge shout-out to Frankston’s superboot. Many people in this chamber would have seen on the news last night we have a new champion in Frankston, Archie Wilson, who is becoming a punter for Nebraska. He seems like an awesome kid and an all-round great character. Let us rally behind him and send him the local love. He is going to be a home-town hero, I am sure. He joins a group of many, many VFL and AFL football players that come from Frankston and the peninsula. We have a great legacy of breeding champions on the peninsula. Exporting them to the US is something a little bit new in the football sense. We have done it before with basketball, but we are very, very proud and wish Archie Wilson all the best in his journey.
