Young Saints Player's chance of a lifetime.
One of the Inverell Saints young guns Alex Walker has been given the opportunity of a lifetime to trial with the Sydney Swans reserve grade team. Walker has been selected in the forward line to take on The Ainslie Saints at the Sydney Cricket Ground on Sunday. The match is a curtain raiser to the AFL
match of the round between the Sydney Swans and top of the table Port Adelaide.
The Saints senior coach Dick Gleeson says it is an opportunity for this talented young player to show his wares at the highest level. Dick Gleeson says it is recognition of the
development of AFL football within the Inverell Saints football club which is only in it's third season and gives other young up and coming players the chance to aim at the highest level.
Mr.Gleeson also praised the Sydney Swans for it's continued support of young AFL
talent in regional NSW. The match will be played this Sunday at 9.50am at the SCG.
