The Brisbane Lions have taken North Ballarat Rebels midfielder Hugh McCluggage at Pick No. 3 in tonight’s NAB AFL National Draft in Sydney.
McCluggage is an elite ball-winner with fantastic foot skills, but his forward-half efficiency makes him a truly special talent.
He can finish with precision both on the run and from set-shots, which led to him booting 25 goals from 12 games in the TAC Cup this season with an average of 27.9 disposals.
HUGH McCLUGGAGE: 186cm/76kg, 3/3/98
- Vic Country / North Ballarat Rebels
- Hybrid Mid – Hybrid Forward
- 2016 AA Midfielder, VC Most valuable Player, Morrish Medal Winner
