Snapshot
Summary

One of the premier prospects in this year’s AFLW Draft pool, Montana Ham is the quintessential end product of several years of development in the elite talent pathway. A powerful, 179cm athlete who dominates at stoppages, Ham owns her space with ominous presence and has also proven to be a capable lead-up forward. Either way, she’s near-impossible to stop in full flight.
