Hawks, Bloods dominate Team of the Year

Springvale South and Hallam Kalora Park players represented seven of the 12 players selected in the DDCA Turf 1 Team of the Year, announced on Sunday at the presentation of the Alan Wookey Medal at the Dandenong Club.

Ryan Quirk, Jordan Wyatt and Jarryd Straker were chosen from the Bloods, while Leigh Booth, Ciaron Connolly, Sachith Jayasingha and Jordan Hammond made-up the Hawks’ contingent.

Hammond was chosen as 12th man in the side.
