David Madut
DOB: 1-10-93
Height: 196-198 (approx)
Club: Subiaco
A late starter to football like so many in Australia of South Sudanese heritage, Madut impressed in his first season of WAFL colts football in 2012, demonstrating magnificent athleticism, genuine speed, a fine leap and a clear competitive hunger for the game. His excellent form earned him a late place in the West Australian 18's squad but a subsequent knee injury ruled him out of all the matches. In his favour, the injury was a result of a collision rather than a simple lateral movement in an uncontested situation. Now fully fit and training strongly with the Subiaco league squad, it will be interesting to see if he can stay injury free and compete toe-to-toe with the league's best ruckmen such as Mark Seaby, Paul Johnson and Chris Keunen. One thing is for certain, very few youngsters will work harder to make an impact. When Madut isn't playing, he's training or pushing weights. When he's not training, he's coaching juniors in the Subiaco district and when he's not doing that, one can often find him kicking a ball around at Leederville or elsewhere.
