This Victorian talent has had some sound advice from one of the current champions of the game.
Jade Gresham’s father Jamie, played alongside North Melbourne’s Brent Harvey back in his junior days.
Remaining close with Harvey, the 18-year-old has benefitted from Harvey’s experience with the 409-gamer offering sound advice.
Gresham has been able to make a name for himself throughout the year playing for the Vic Metro side.
There have been few that have been able to stop the ball winning ways of Gresham, as he averaged close to 30-disposals in his first 13 games for the Northern Knights.
Gresham’s talent has not gone unnoticed with the crafty midfielder coming equal runner-up in the TAC Cup’s Morrish medal, winning the TAC Cup Coaches Award, the Northern Knights’ best and fairest, and Vic Metro’s MVP award.
Why pick him?
- Great skill level, winning the goalkicking test at the NAB Draft Combine
