The AFL's Gather Round concept has been a raging success over three years, giving South Australia an opportunity to showcase their state as they play host in the festival of footy.
But over the three iterations of Gather Round, who has stood out in their performance?
Honourable Mentions:
- Fremantle forward Josh Treacy (2025) - 11 possessions, six goals and eight marks
- St Kilda midfielder Brad Crouch (2023) - 33 disposals, two goals, nine clearances and 529 metres gained
- Adelaide forward Darcy Fogarty (2023) - 16 touches, five goals, 12 score involvements, 10 marks and two goal assists
5Patrick Dangerfield
From a stats perspective, Dangerfield's performance against Adelaide last year didn't turn many heads, but the impact of his performance determined the outcome.
The star Car amassed 16 disposals and kicked four goals as a permanent forward, including two in the final quarter that simply dropped the jaws of those fortunate to watch the master at work.
