Jy Simpkin

Had to contend with some soft-tissues injuries and an infamous pre-season concussion courtesy of St Kilda defender Jimmy Webster last year, but for the second year in a row, his output was down on his career-best form from 2021-22. Failed to crack the best and fairest top 10 in 2024. Is it a coincidence that this form dip has coincided with being given the co-captaincy? Perhaps it has become a burden.

Honours

North Melbourne Captain (2025), Syd Barker Medal Winner (2021, 2022), North Melbourne Co-Captain (2023 - 2024), Glenn Archer Shinboner of the Year (2021), Syd Barker Medal Runner-Up (2020), North Melbourne Vice-Captain (2021 - 2022).
