Donald Dickie (born 8th May 1972 in New Zealand) is a former professional Australian rules footballer notable for his brief appearance in the Australian Football League for the Port Adelaide Football Club.
Dickie was born in New Zealand. Of Māori heritage, he is one of few Maori Australians in the history of the VFL/AFL.
His family emigrated to South Australia where he played with the Norwood Football Club.
Dickie was taken at Pick #19 in the pre-season AFL draft as a zone selection.
The wingman became a cult player at Port Adelaide[1] known for his exciting dashing play and hard tackles.
After inconsistent form and complications with ankle injuries Dickie was delisted by the power at the end of 2000 having played a total of 55 games.
