A mainstay in the back six, the former Crichton Medallist was at his best in 2023, booting a first career AFL goal in round one and dominating the Dreamtime at the ‘G clash with a composed 32-disposal effort. A quad injury in round 19 prematurely ended the 25-year-old’s season in a big loss to the side, but he’ll be ready to fire again in 2024.
