PORT ADELAIDE MAGPIES’ CASEY CARR WINS ROUND 12

COCA-COLA STAR SEARCH AWARD NOMINATION

Casey Carr from the Port Adelaide Magpies Football Club has been named the Round Twelve Coca-Cola Star Search Award nominee.

In just his fourth League match for the Magpies, Carr was a standout in the Magpies’ 36 point win against West Adelaide on Sunday at Broadspectrum Oval.

This attacking wingman’s consistency throughout the match earned him 3 goals amongst his 14 possession game. Carr’s ability to play in a number of roles around the ground has allowed him to become a versatile player and asset to the League team.

Making his League debut in Round 8 this year against Sturt, Carr has formed a strong presence in the Magpies’ midfield structure. Recruited to the Magpies in 2006, Carr went on to play the majority of season 2007 in the Magpies Under 19 team, and a number of games in the Reserves, before representing the Magpies in the Under 19’s premiership team at AAMI Stadium. Carr also represented the SA State Under 18’s in last year’s carnival.

Carr was recruited from the United Yeelanna Football Club in the Great Flinders Football League. Carr is the Magpies’ second Coca-Cola Star Search nominee for season 2008.
