Daniel Webb Rnd 9 Star search nomination
Posted: Tue Jun 02, 2009 5:34 pmDaniel Webb from West Adelaide Football Club has been named the Round 9 Coca-Cola Star Search nominee.
A product of West’s junior development program, Webb began his football career at Flagstaff Hill before progressing through the underage grades.
Despite a severely interrupted preseason (post-season shoulder surgery followed by a knee problem meant he did not resume training until mid-April), Webb returned to League football and has performed well over the past three weeks.
In the weekend’s match against Port Adelaide Magpies, the 19 year old gave an impressive performance at centre half forward, with some time spent in ruck in the second half.
Standing at 196cm with a huge leap, he is an exciting marking player.
