The Williamstown Seagulls have announced that former Melbourne tall Tom Fullarton has signed with the club for the 2026 season.
The Demons delisted Fullarton after two seasons and two games, which followed five years at Brisbane for 19 matches.
The basketball convert had previously spent time with the Brisbane Bullets' development side, and was signed by the Lions as a Category B Rookie in 2018.
"Tom's an elite athlete who's proven he can compete at the highest level," said Ash Collins, Williamstown GM of Football Operations.
"His work ethic and experience from two AFL programs make him an outstanding addition to our squad."
The addition of Fullarton follows the Seagulls' announcement of the signings of former AFL players Braydon Preuss and Kallan Dawson.
Preuss was in the AFL for 10 years across three clubs (North Melbourne, Melbourne and GWS), and played for the Yarragon Panthers in the Ellinbank & District Football League in 2025.

As for Dawson, his return is a homecoming after his three-and-a-half-year stint at North Melbourne.
The key defender was previously at the Seagulls but was drafted in the 2022 Mid-Season Draft, playing 19 games.
Dawson adds to a promising off-season recruitment drive at Williamstown, who have also added ex-Blue David Cuningham (Footscray), Diesel Moloney (Footscray), Josh D'Intinosante (Coburg Lions) and Josh Hamilton (Northern Bullants).
The Seagulls finished 10th on the ladder in 2025, bowing out to Casey in the second week of the VFL finals after defeating Collingwood in the Wildcard Round.
