Congratulations to our Round 6 AFL Cairns Rising Star Nominee, Mugsy Mooka, Manunda Hawks playing half-back in just his fifth AFL Cairns Senior match after debuting in 2013, Mugsy was given a role to stop his direct opponent, and also assist his fellow defender and full-back stop the competitions leading goal kicker.

The 16 year old showed courage and poise of a 50+ gamer, rebounding out of the defensive half in favour of his side. He worked hard around the ground and whilst he’s been consistent all year, he shone for the Hawks against the competitions benchmark side.

Along with his nomination and chance to take out the Troy Clarke Rising Star Award in 2014, Mugsy receives a 30 minute massage voucher at Nirvana Massage, Lake Street, Cairns.
Congratulations Mugsy.
