The Sydney Swans have tonight recruited Callum Mills with the club’s first selection at the 2015 AFL National Draft.

Callum Mills

Position: Midfielder
Height: 187cm
Weight: 80kg
Age: 18
Junior Club: North Shore/QBE Sydney Swans Academy

Bio: An outstanding medium midfield talent, Mills is a Sydney Swans Academy member who joined the Swans in the National Draft under the Academy bidding system. He suffered a number of injuries to his shin and foot throughout the season meaning he played very little football as he got his body right. Mills is a prolific ball winner, courageous in the contest and a very good ball user when he gets into space. He is strong overhead and does not shirk the issue when it comes to entering a contested situation.

Kinnear Beatson - Recruiting and List Manager
"We're really pleased to be able to get Callum, we rate him so highly. The footy that he played for our reserves team in the NEAFL has been terrific. We think he's an elite talent and has really strong leadership potential."
