Wil Dawson

A member of North Melbourne’s highly touted collection of 2023 first-round draft picks, the key position prospect got a little taste of AFL footy last year with three games in defence, but a shoulder injury against West Coast put the brakes on his debut season. Spent time in the ruck late in the year in the VFL and signed a one-year extension until 2026.
