Nomination Details

Reason for nomination this round:

Billy has played the majority of the season in Premier Division & only missed out due to the restrictions associated with the player points system. He has been in our best players in multiple occasions, and consistently covers the needs of the team across various positions.

Coach quote on Performance:

After kicking 2 goals last week, Billy provided the team with a much-needed contest at CHF as well as swapping in the Ruck. 

He gained 15 disposals, 10 contested possessions, 5 clearances, 3 tackles, and 4 inside 50s – but most importantly it was his desire to throw himself at the aerial contest which helped the team win.
