Harry Marr LLUKEUKE JJEFFERYEFFERY Kingston Physiotherapy Body on the Line Award

p.p. Leigh McMahon is the smooth mover of the competition. He rolls easily onto his left foot and inevitably hits a team mate approximately 40 metres away, time after time after time. The game at Dairy Farmers Park last week was the match of the season with the stakes very high. Leigh won plenty of contested ball and played an inspired roll in a physical contest. His willingness to take pressure from opponents intent on body clashes and still play with a cool head and calculated manner makes him the winner of the Kingston Physio Body on the Line award.
