The highly touted 2024 draftee overcame a pre-draft ACL rupture to make his AFL debut in Round 18 following some delectable VFL form.

He played the last seven AFL games as a high half-forward with some small stints in the midfield.

The son of ex-Blue and Magpie Trent is a classy mover, elite by hand and creative by foot and will look to truly break out in 2026. He is contracted until 2027.
