Round 2’s Alinta Docker for a Day was 11-year-old Joshua Barry of Roleystone.

A mad keen Fremantle Dockers fan, Joshua got to run out onto Patersons Stadium with his favourite player, Matthew Pavlich, in the Starlight Purple Haze Game against Geelong on 2 April.

Joshua is a Starlight Wish Child who suffers from juvenile arthritis.

Thanks to Alinta, young Joshua’s Docker for a Day experience was one he will never forget.

To cap off a great week, after being the Alinta Docker for a Day Joshua’s wish was granted from Starlight when he flew to the Gold Coast with his family to visit the theme parks.
