Snapshot
Summary

An aerially prolific defender who reads the play beautifully, Laura Elliott has catapulted herself into AFLW Draft contention on the back of a sensational season with NAB League Girls premiers, the Western Jets. Despite consistently giving up a good amount of size to some of the competition’s tall forwards, the 17-year-old held her own to stand comfortably among her side’s most important players.

FUN FACT:

During her breakout performance in Round 5 of the NAB League Girls season, all seven of Elliott’s season-high seven marks were intercepts, coming off the boot of Sandringham Dragons players.
