Promising draft prospect Josh Lindsay is a 183cm half-back from the Geelong Falcons.
The smooth-moving defender-midfielder hybrid entered 2025 with plenty of plaudits, most notably for his clean ball movement by foot.
Lindsay claimed best-afield honours on grand final day last year in the U17s Futures Game and would be given the nod of B.O.G. once more in April this year in the AFL Academy's win over VFL side Coburg.
Both performances saw Lindsay's delightful left foot split open the opposition with precision, quickly having him crowned the best ball user in his draft class.
Lindsay's strong first half to the year continued with the Falcons and in his commitments with Vic Country, featuring among his side's best in his bookending performances at the National Championships.
Lindsay finished fifth overall in the Larke Medal voting and was named in the backline of the U18s All-Australia team, while Team of the Year honours in the Coates Talent League added to his list of accolades.
Lindsay could earn a selection in the top 10 of this year's draft, with clubs lining up beyond that mark on night one likely keen to acquire the rebounding backman.
