A joint winner of the 1935 Sandover medal, Lou Daily was an outstanding fullback who could out mark all the forwards of his day and drop-kick almost to the centre line. His clearing dashes were a feature of his game, and he was a three-time club fairest and best winner for Subiaco. He also spent two successful seasons in the VFL with Collingwood and Geelong and later earned a great reputation on the WA goldfields.
