Jay Polkinghorne

The Cats’ second pick in last year’s draft, the Norwood forward is a strong mark and an accurate kick for goal. Polkinghorne was not held goalless in five SANFL reserves appearances and six in the under-18s. He impressed for Norwood’s reserves team in 2024, booting two goals and collecting 17 disposals on Grand Final day on his way to becoming a premiership player.
