The Brisbane Lions' first selection, 7th pick overall, Jordan Zanchetta has had to wait twelve long months to finally receive her AFLW Brisbane Lions guernsey.
The midfielder might have been a Lions’ top six
Zanchetta started playing AFL in high school at the Yeronga Devils Football Club. Since then, she’s developed into a hard-working, aggressive inside midfielder who uses the ball well. She is particularly skilful in evading the opposition inside congested space.
The 22-year-old has represented the Western Bulldogs in Women’s Exhibition matches and Queensland in Senior State representative games. She is a two-time All-Australian at Youth Girls level and was a joint QWAFL best and fairest medal winner in 2015.
In August this year, back from her ACL injury, Zanchetta was an important member of the Devil’s QWAFL Premiership team.
