SAAFL U/23s
Congratulations to Kieran Holland and Paul Fantasia
Congratulations to Kieran Holland and Paul Fantasia who played in the successful SAAFL U/23s side that defeated an open SA country side at Adelaide Oval as a curtain raiser to the Crows V GWS game on Easter Sunday.
Kieran played across half back, stopping numerous opposition forward forays as well as providing great drive for the SAAFL side. Many observers thought he was high among the SAAFL's best players. He even managed to sneak forward to kick a great early goal on his left foot (although the SAAFL recorded that the goal was kicked by another player).
Paul also played a good game and won plenty of the ball through the midfield and up forward.
Kieran and Paul are both strong chances to travel to Perth during the June long weekend to represent the SAAFL U/23s. This side will be finalised closer to the departure date.
