Griff Julian
A composed and polished prospect out of West Perth, Griff Julian came into his top-age year as one of Western Australia’s more established players. A strong bottom-age Colts campaign saw him enter 2022 as one of the Falcons’ leaders, and he proved integral to his side’s run to the grand final. During an impressive campaign […]
Darcy Edmends
STRENGTHS: + Disposal efficiency + Composure + Outside game IMPROVEMENTS: – Speed – Contested work After impressing at bottom-aged level, it took some time for Northern Knights’ Darcy Edmends to find that same level of impact in 2022, but an impressive back half of the year still has him firmly in the draft frame.

Not only does he possess a strong frame, springy leap and explosive speed, but his endurance base saw him […]
Jack Cleaver
A junior who cracked all three WAFL grades in 2022, Jack Cleaver has looked comfortable at each level. The East Fremantle utility started out at Colts level, and took just one Reserves outing to earn League selection, where he ended the year strongly across seven games. There, he helped the Sharks to a preliminary final […]
