West Australian boundary umpire Nathan Doig will officiate in his first AFL Grand Final this weekend after being named alongside WA field umpire Brett Rosebury.
Rosebury, who was also announced as 2011 All-Australian umpire, will officiate in his fourth AFL Grand Final, while Doig will make his debut as the fifth WA umpire selected for an AFL Grand Final.
Doig, who has umpired 203 senior games including 137 AFL games, commenced his umpiring career in the WAFL in 2002. He umpired in the 2003 and 2004 WAFL Grand Finals before being added to the AFL umpiring panel in 2005.
WA High Performance Umpire’s Coach Darryl Sinclair congratulated Doig and Rosebury on being selected for this year’s AFL Grand Final and said it was an outstanding achievement for both umpires.
