Congratulations to this champion of the club, with past Premierships under his belt, an inspirational footballer, and an amazing mentor to our incoming players this year. We are very excited to be able to watch Mark “Buckets” Nielsen play his 200th A Grade game for the Devils this Saturday at Arkaba Oval against Hahndorf.
Having played almost all of his football for the Candy Stripes since he was just a wee tacker, Buckets really does bleed the red & white. His only stint away from the club was a few seasons down the hill playing for the Doublas at Sturt, before returning home in 2013. Since then, Buckets has dominated the backlines with his more than sound football knowledge and, arguably, the safest hands in the league.
Watching Buckets develop from a young Devil into the outstanding footballer and mentor that he is, it’s has been an absolute pleasure and honour. We are really looking forward to this weekends match and seeing what it will deliver.
CONGRATULATIONS AGAIN MARK! Give ’em Hell mate!
