With the AFL Mid-Season Draft just around the corner, we take a look at the top 10 prospects from the SANFL and what they could provide their new club...

6. Jacob Newton - Norwood

Norwood product Jacob Newton was considered one of the biggest hard-luck stories from last year's draft, with a navicular foot injury in the second half of the year dashing his draft hopes.

After recovering from the injury earlier this season, the 19-year-old moved straight into the league team and has not looked back, kicking seven goals in four games as a hybrid forward.

A dominant midfielder in junior footy, Newton averaged 24 disposals and seven clearances per game for Norwood in the U18s last year and displayed tremendous power and strength at the stoppages.

Still finding his feet at league level, the 179cm dynamo has been stationed at half-forward and impressed onlookers with his overhead marking and finishing ability in front of goal.
