TWO OLD BOYS WERE SELECTED IN THE 2022 AFL NATIONAL DRAFT.

Congratulations to Will Ashcroft (OB 2021) on being selected as Pick #2. Will was drafted to the Brisbane Lions under the AFL’s father-son rule, following in father Marcus’ footsteps having played 318 games for the Lions.

Will co-captained the BGS First XVIII in 2021 and was awarded the Harry Zachariah Best & Fairest Trophy. With BGS close to his heart, Will returned in 2022 to coach and mentor the Year 7 Football squad.

Cam Mackenzie (OB 2022) was selected by Hawthorn as Pick #7 which completed a stunning journey for Cam that included selection in the 2022 AFL Under 18 All-Australian team.

After six brilliant years on the Crowther Oval, it was fitting that he ended his time at BGS as a Premiership ViceCaptain and First XVIII Best & Fairest winner. Cam is also a BGS Scholar – one of the top-scoring VCE students for 2022.
