What is one thing that we don’t know about this Rising Star that they are well known for around the club? See above
What role do they play for the club both on and off the field? Social butterfly
The night before the game what will they most likely be doing? Tucked up in bed after watching the footy…or so he says to Lee!
Do they have any pre-game superstitions? Arrive late to the game & get the coach angry
Reason for nomination this round: Xavier had a best on ground performance against Shellharbour in Round 14 after a month off footy doing what university students do has earnt X Factor this nomination.

A great new addition to the Dogs in 2019!
