Renegade recruit
North Geelong paceman and Geelong Cricket Association’s top bowler in 2020-21, Tom Mathieson, will rub shoulders with Melbourne Renegades players after winning a state-wide competition.
More than 7000 fans voted for the sprinkler fitter to be the Renegades Recruit and take an all-expenses-paid two-week pre-season trip with Renegades Academy players.
“The chance to head on tour with elite cricketers is a dream come true and I can’t wait to show everyone what I’m made of,” Mathieson said.
