The GIANTS have selected versatile defender Finn Davis with pick 51 in the 2025 Telstra AFL Draft.
The key details:
Name: Finn Davis
State: Victoria
Drafted from: Vic Metro | Western Jets
Position: Medium defender
Height: 188cm
Date of Birth: 21/1/2007
Bio: Standing at 188cm, Davis is a talented and versatile defender capable of playing on both tall and small forwards. Aiding his defensive versatility, Davis has a unique ability to both shut down his direct opponent while also turning defence into attack as a running defender. Modelling his game on Bulldog Bailey Dale, the 18-year-old is a reliable one-on-one defender who also loves to create through his ball use out of the backline. After missing the first six weeks of the 2025 season due to injury, Davis returned to the field in May and went on to become one of the Western Jets’ most consistent performers. The talented teenager ended his 2025 season averaging 27.7 disposals, 6 marks, and 6.4 rebound 50s to cement himself as one of the Coates Talent League’s most consistent medium defenders.
What GIANTS Head of Talent Adrian Caruso says:
“Finn had a strong year at the Western Jets as a composed, calm ball-user out of the backline. What we like most about Finn was his ability to get a job done when asked of him, but also show the creativity and ball use when used as a set up player. He adds to your young mix of backs we have brought in over recent years like James Leake, Joe Fonti and Harry Oliver."
