Nick's
Sponsored Player2004: Luke Shackleton
A
burley midfielder, Shackleton hails from Burnie, Tasmania. In
his junior days, Shackleton won the Morrish Medal, for the best
player in the TAC Cup in 2002.
Shackleton was then drafted by Collingwood at pick 29 in the
2002 National Draft. Shackleton spent 2003 at Williamstown,
where he gained experience from players such as Adrian Fletcher
and Brad Lloyd. Shackleton was often criticised for his weight,
with people saying he was too slow for AFL football.
2004 was a good year for Shackleton, who came very close mid
season to making his AFL debut after a hitting a rich vein of
form midway through the year.

Dinner
with Luke Shackleton

Report By Tess, Photo's by Dale61
Thursday
the 22nd of July was a momentous night for Nicks Collingwood
Bulletin Board. As most of you would know some 20 or so members
of NBB decided we would sponsor a player this year, after much
discussion on who we should target we settled on Luke Shackleton.
A young player from Tasmania who up until this season had only
played at Williamstown our VFL affiliate Club. Unfortunately
young Luke hasn't been able to break into the Collingwood team
yet in 2004 but we all wish that he will get his chance soon. Read The Full Report Here
