The Perth Football League made history on Saturday as they posted back-to-back wins over the Big V for the first time after a thrilling struggle at Sportscover Arena, Elsternwick Park.
The VAFA congratulates Caulfield Grammarian’s Jack Ellwood on his Round 8 Rising Star nomination. Jack was instrumental in the Fields 34 point win over St Bernard’s to push themselves out of the bottom two. Ellwood kicked 3 goals in a best on ground display for the home side.
What the club said:
Jack is a passionate Grammarian who has followed up his JA Wilson Medal (U/19’s B&F Winner) in 2021 with a huge preseason and a sensational start to the 2022 season.
He is an incredibly driven young man, who has worked incredibly hard in preparing himself for senior football and it has been fantastic to see this dedication pay off. His energy on field has been contagious and his work rate in the forward half has been a benchmark for our senior side.
Everyone at Caulfield Grammarians is thrilled for Jack to receive this nomination and we are just as excited to see him develop further at the Fields.
