AFL / VFL PLAYERS

Ormond Amatuer Football Club enjoys a proud history of players that have represented OAFC/OJFC at the highest level of Australian Rules Football. 

From Harry Smith who played for Richmond in the late 1930's to Luke Kennedy who was drafted to the Western Bulldogs in 2024 after winning the 2023 OAFC Senior Best & Fairest as a 16 year old, Ormond acknowledges all VFL/AFL players who have passed through OAFC or OJFC in their football journey.  Some showing the ultimate commitment and returning to OAFC to finish off their football careers.

We eagerly await the next 'Monder' to be drafted into the AFL or AFLW.
