Suns replace Barlow with upgraded midfielder

Gold Coast youngster set to build on his four games from last year

By Staff writer

YOUNG Gold Coast midfielder Darcy MacPherson has been upgraded to the Suns' senior list.

MacPherson, 19, replaces Michael Barlow who will miss the rest of the season with a broken leg.

The elevated rookie played four games last season after being selected with pick No.21 in the 2015 rookie draft.

He has averaged over 30 disposals in the NEAFL this year.

The Suns face St Kilda this week in the twilight game at Etihad Stadium on Sunday.
