Men’s Rising Star: Riley Alexander
The VAFA congratulates Riley Alexander who has claimed the Round 9 men’s rising star nomination. Riley kicked 3 goals as part of La Trobe’s 46 point win on the weekend that saw him push further ahead on the sharpshooters table with 36 for the season.
What the club said:
Riley made a great start with La Trobe in 2021, placing second in our Senior Men’s goal kicking in a Covid shortened season.
This year he has continued that form. After a solid pre-season and adding a kilo or two he has matured into a key forward, consistently creating opportunities for team mates as well as adding to his own goal tally. His energy, desperation and freakish ability to win the ball are inspirational, as is his resilience given the attention he receives.
Everyone at La Trobe is proud of Riley’s contribution to our club, and we look forward to him enjoying further success.
