The Sydney Swans have selected QBE Sydney Swans Academy player Braeden Campbell with pick five at the 2020 AFL Draft, matching the bid from Hawthorn.
Club: Pennant Hills / QBE Sydney Swans Academy
DOB: 4/2/2002
Height: 180cm
Weight: 73kg
Position: Midfield
Braeden Campbell is a product of the QBE Sydney Swans Academy. His strengths are clear: he's fast, he breaks the lines, he balances his inside and outside midfield game and he's a deadly left-foot kick.
That was on show in last year's AFL Grand Final, when Campbell booted three goals from 14 disposals to be best afield in the NAB All Stars 'Futures' game.
Campbell after being drafted said: "The work that you have to do when the ball is in the air, that's what I have learned from people at the Swans like Isaac Heeney and Joey (Josh Kennedy), so I am really looking forward to spending some time with them."
A product of our very own QBE Sydney Swans Academy.
