Draft pick #61 – Minairo Frederick
DOB: 17/05/2000
POSITION: Wing
HEIGHT: 183cm
WEIGHT: 71kg
DRAFTED FROM: Woodville West Torrens
Minairo Frederick had an outstanding finish to the year with 21 disposals and three goals for Woodville West Torrens in a SANFL U18 semi-final, followed by the medal for best afield in the Grand Final two weeks later.
A wingman with impressive running ability, he was invited to the South Australian State Combine, where he showed his speed with a 2.94 20 metres sprint and also recorded top five results in the running vertical jump and yo-yo tests.
Frederick rated elite for ranking points, disposals, uncontested possessions, goals and score involvements at SANFL U18 level, showcasing his freakish evasiveness and ability to deliver off both feet in his 18 Under 18 and two Reserves games.
He's highly creative with sharp goal sense and a willingness to take the game on, and he can also take a big mark.
