NORTH ADELAIDE’S MATTHEW WRIGHT WINS ROUND 18 COCA-COLA STAR SEARCH AWARD NOMINATION
Matthew Wright from the North Adelaide Football Club has been named the Round Eighteen Coca-Cola Star Search Award nominee.
In his debut League appearance, 17 year old Wright was one of North Adelaide’s best in their 57 point victory over Norwood at Prospect Oval on Saturday.
Playing in attack, Wright kicked a goal with his first kick, an impressive snap from the boundary line during the first quarter. He accumulated 18 disposals, including 12 kicks, 6 handballs, kicked 4 goals and laid 3 tackles.
Matthew was recruited from the Walkerville Football Club before progressing through North Adelaide’s underage teams. Wright is North Adelaide’s second Coca-Cola Star Search Award nominee this season following Josh Cubillo in Round 4.

He definitely deserves the award, 4 goals plus he set up a few, not a bad effort on debut. His first kick in league footy was a great goal too.
