Premiership winner Ah Nee Nwe wants to be first Karen AFL player

Nwe's junior side in Victoria's far west broke a 28-year drought to defeat Ararat by seven points, with the teenager named best on ground. Seven years ago, Nwe had barely heard of Australian Rules football, let alone kicked a Sherrin. But fast forward to the last Saturday in September and he was launching long-range goals and inspiring his teammates as one of nine Karen boys in the drought-breaking side. assertive
