Lachlan Sholl (born 7 March 2000) is an

Adelaide Crows with the 64th draft pick in the 2018 AFL draft.[1][2] Sholl is the son of former Carlton player Brett Sholl, and nephew of former North Melbourne player Craig Sholl and former Geelong player Brad Sholl.[3][4]

Early football

Sholl is from Victoria and played junior football for the St Bernard's Football Club in Melbourne.

AFL Under 18 Championships in 2018,[10] playing three games and recording a disposal average of 16.7 and disposal efficiency of 70%.[8]

AFL career

2020 season

Sholl debuted in the Crows' 51-point loss to the Melbourne Football Club in the 10th round of the 2020 AFL season.[11][12] On debut, Sholl recorded 10 disposals, one mark, one tackle and two clearances.[13] After two impressive performances in Rounds 17 and 18 of the 2020 AFL season, where he collected a combined total of two goals, 43 disposals, nine marks and four clearances, he earned a Rising Star nomination in the final round of the season, after narrowly missing out the week before to Collingwood's Isaac Quaynor.[14][15][16] Sholl earned praise from past footballers such as David King, who stated "I think this kid could be the best kick in the comp in the next 18 months, you watch him and he’s deadly by foot. Over the last six or seven games that we’ve seen him play – and it’s only very early – but his skills stand out already for the Adelaide Crows. I don’t see too many youngsters come in and inject themselves into the game like he has."[17]

2021 season

Sholl became just the 12th player in AFL history to receive two Rising Star nominations when he received a 2021 AFL Rising Star nomination for his inspired performance against North Melbourne, where he collected 31 disposals and a goal. He also became the fastest player two achieve this feat.[18]
