Boy, Oh Boy Wowee of the Week – Round Eight
ROUND EIGHT WINNER
Troy Luff’s TEN goal haul for the UNSW Eastern Suburbs Men’s Division Two team on the weekend.
The 2002 Phelan Medallist has been a stalwart of AFL Sydney footy for almost 17 years. In what seemed like his 1000th game of Senior footy, the former Sydney Swan bagged ten of the Bulldogs 18 goals as they cruised to a 101-point victory over the East Coast Eagles. We’ve been told that it was exactly ten years to the day since Troy last managed such a feat
Turning 50 this year Luff has proved he’s still got plenty more footy in him and we hope to be reporting on a repeat performance in ten years time.
Nomination: Erle Lindsay, UNSW Eastern Suburbs Bulldogs (We hope Erle’s sharing these)
