Subscriber only FLEET-footed Western Pride goal scorer Byron McLeod has already experienced highs and lows as a footballer who is just 20 years old. The former premiership-winning Peninsula Power striker/winger has played overseas and broke his collarbone after lining up against his current club as a junior. He rated the latest local derby against the Ipswich Knights one of the toughest matches he has played in. McLeod put his team 2-0 up in the 26th minute after capitalising on a goalmouth scramble.
