Archie Roberts

A bright spot to emerge from Essendon’s disastrous final month of last season. Was given his debut in round 21 against Fremantle and instantly looked right at home on the big stage, going on to average 22 disposals (seven contested), five marks and three tackles. Is a beautiful user of the ball and a sound decision-maker. Contracted until 2026, he is one to watch this year.
