Australian Personalities Choose Their Cover Athlete
We are excited to announce that the decision for the FIFA 17 cover vote is once again in your hands.
This year we have four of the best talents in world football: James Rodríguez, Marco Reus, Anthony Martial and Eden Hazard.
To celebrate, four Australian influencers are getting behind the cover vote and telling us who you should choose to be on the cover of FIFA 17.
Jacko Brazier
BIO - A 22 year old entertainer from Melbourne, Jackson is a popular Vine Video Creator, gathering over 375 Mil loops and over 603K followers. He is taking over other social media platforms with his comedic creative content, making him a well known public figure. He was titled first of 5 in “5 Australian Vine Stars you should be watching” by Mashable.
SUPPORT – “I'm supporting Marco Reus because you can't have a FIFA Ultimate Team without him, he is my go to guy! Marco for the cover!”
Matt Cooper
BIO - Matt Cooper is a national role model and one of rugby league’s most high profile identities, even in retirement. Originating from NSW’s South Coast, the Australian Test Centre was a remarkable talent and asset to the NRL taking it by storm year after year. Matt’s leadership, speed, strong defence and tackle-busting ability cemented him spots in the NSW and Australian representative sides.
SUPPORT – “I am supporting James Rodriguez for the cover of FIFA 17. Not only am I a keen Real Madrid fan, but Rodriguez has fantastic footwork, superb dribbling skills and knows how to strike the ball. He's strong on the ball and knows how to score a goal or two.”
Ellyse Perry
BIO - Ellyse Perry is a 25 years old, and a world-class athlete in both cricket and soccer. Ellyse became the youngest Australian - male or female - to play senior international cricket. Two weeks later Ellyse would make her debut for the Matildas, Australia’s national women’s soccer team.
SUPPORT – “Excited to throw my support behind Eden Hazard to be the face of FIFA 17! With your help we can get this genuine superstar of world football gracing the next cover.”
"Jay Bucks"
BIO – “My name is TheMasterBucks. I'm a huge Football fan making FIFA YouTube videos out of Adelaide, Australia!”
SUPPORT – “I don't mean to brag but, as a Career Mode YouTuber, I've known about the brilliance of Anthony Martial ever since FIFA 12. Now he's hit the big time and I’m showing my support to have him on the cover of FIFA 17.”
