Head of AFL Queensland, Trisha Squires:
“On behalf of AFL Queensland, we send our love and support to the Dunbar family, the North Mackay Saints Football Club and the wider AFL Mackay football community, following the tragic passing of Chris ‘CD’ Dunbar who lost his battle with pancreatic cancer overnight.”
“Chris made his mark on our great game in Queensland and his name and legacy will forever be remembered and treasured.”
“Chris played an impressive 501 games with the North Mackay Saints and kicked five goals in his 500th game in 2018.”
“He made his senior debut in 1989 and would go on to play nearly 30 years of senior footy, and compete in six premierships with the club.”
“Chris was made an AFL Mackay Life Member in 2009 and is a North Mackay Saints Life Member.”
“Our thoughts are with Chris’ wife Katrina and sons Cody and Bailey at this very sad time.”
