Nomination Details
Reason for nomination this round:
In just his fourth game in Premier Division, Louis was a dominant athlete on the field, greatly contributing to the win. He kicked 3 goals, and was named Sydney Uni’s best- Louis is certainly a player to watch
Coach quote on Performance:
“Louis is getting the rewards for the hard work that he has put in all pre-season. He was really clean on the weekend in sometimes slippery conditions on the synthetic field. He is really well liked amongst the group and is easy to coach and is always looking for ways to add to his game. His football smarts will have the opposition coaches putting some time and effort into shutting him down” Lindsay Scown- Head Coach
