Pat Dunkley (born September 18, 1972) is a Canadian former international rugby union player.
A James Bay hooker, Dunkley debuted for the Canada national team in 1998 and was a member of the squad for the 1999 Rugby World Cup, playing all three pool matches.[1]
Dunkley developed the life-threatening flesh eating disease necrotizing fasciitis in his right leg from a cut received during a tour of Western Samoa in 2000 and required operations to save the leg.[2] [3]
