Western Bulldogs forward Nell Morris-Dalton has earned a NAB AFL women’s rising star nomination.
Morris-Dalton, who was drafted at pick six in the 2019 AFLW draft from the Northern Knights, has made massive inroads this season for the Bulldogs.
Playing all but one match this year, having played six across the last two seasons, Morris-Dalton has provided the Bulldogs with a key target up forward.
Against the West Coast Eagles on Saturday night, the 20-year-old had 12 disposals and kicked two goals.
Morris-Dalton’s junior club, Fitzroy will receive a NAB club recognition award pack of practical and financial resources, valued at $2000.
She’s the second Bulldog to be nominated this season, with Elisabeth Georgostathis nominated in round seven.
Fremantle’s Dana East was the other nominee for round nine.
Two players are nominated each week of the NAB AFL Women’s Competition.
The overall winner will be awarded $20,000 from NAB and a private banker to assist with securing their financial future.
