Just read that 1970 Sandover Medalist and former Perth champion Pat Dalton has died at the age of 77 after a short illness. Was just before my time so I'll leave it to others who saw him play to pay tributes.

Yep saw Paddy play a fair bit. Tough as nails and with skills to boot. Will be sadly missed by all PFC followers of that era. Thanks for the Memories.

Played over 200 games for Perth Football Club if my foggy old memory is correct.
Is sad news to hear another gone.

I might have told this story a while back but I met him at his sisters 60th birthday party many years ago. I had been to the footy and Perth had one of the rare wins at the time so i was on a bit of a high. This fella says to me who do you go for and I said the mighty Demons. He said to me oh yeah I used to get a kick for them. I asked him what his name was and nearly fell over when he told me. Very humble man. RIP Paddy.

A sad loss. A wonderful player and one of nature’s finest gentlemen.
Sandover Medallist and State player.
A wonderful servant of the Perth Football Club and the WAFL.
RIP Paddy. Thanks for all those great memories.

Yes a great player, happy to say I saw many of his 216 games.
The Dalton family were great servants of our great Club.
Pat was probably the top of the heap.
And a thorough gentleman to boot.
Sad sad loss.
Thoughts to the Dalton family.
RIP Pat.

Great pic of Dalton and his two Perth team mates drinking tea post match on Facebook....just goes to show to be a hard nut in footy, you don't need to be covered in ink, have a Dusty haircut or Dale Morris biceps.....my dad raved on about this fella, obviously before my time....no nonsense footballer....don't make them like they used to eh?
