Defender Amelie Borg was selected with Port Adelaide’s sixth pick in the 2022 NAB AFLW Draft (61 overall). Hailing from North Adelaide in the SANFLW, the lockdown tall boasts impressive mobility and strength that allows her to compete well in the air.
The picture of consistency, Borg played every possible game in the 2024 season, taking her game to new and impressive heights. Her competitive nature and one-on-one ability was a highlight of her game, seeing her emerge as one of the most difficult defensive players in the competition. This improvement was recognised both in and out of the club, with her All-Australian nomination and AFLPA 22under22 selection complementing the Coaches’ Award and Players’ Player Award that she was awarded at Port Adelaide’s Best and Fairest.
A fan favourite within the Port Adelaide faithful, Borg has shown maturity beyond her years and has shown signs that her strong form is just the very beginning for the young talent.
