2023 proved to be breakout year for key defender Jack Payne. After struggling with injury setbacks throughout the early stages of his career, Payne’s size, agility and overhead mark were on display again in 2024 and 2025 before a serious knee injury prematurely ended his season. Creating a formidable partnership with co-captain, Harris Andrews as the Lions tall timber in defence. Another graduate of the Lions Academy with an AFL Premiership under his belt, Payne enters 2026 on the comeback trail.
