Sinclair proud of journey to 100 Perth games

Thursday, April 25, 2019 - 8:29 AM - by Chris Pike
MICHAEL Sinclair could very well be the most undervalued star of the WAFL as he continues to battle manfully against the odds with Perth, but now ahead of his 100th game there is light at the end of the tunnel and he's desperate to be part of it. Maybe it's because he's been playing with a Demons team that has been regularly closer to the bottom of the ladder than contending for a finals spot throughout his career, but for whatever reason Sinclair's consistently standout performances in the red-and-black have gone largely undervalued. Across his 99-game WAFL career, Sinclair is a fairest and best winner at Perth from 2014 and 2016, and has been named to the WAFL team of the Year, but his exploits as the standout intercept and rebound defender in the league might have not been appreciated as much as it deserved.
