Strong decision-making and composure stand out, with developing inside game traits suggesting future midfield expansion.
U18 Championships game 1
Matthews was among the most influential players on the ground in the Allies' victory over Vic Country. The GWS Academy midfielder dominated around stoppages, collecting 35 disposals and 11 clearances while repeatedly launching attacks from the contest. His ability to win first possession and drive his side forward made him one of the standout performers of the match.
