Zach Merrett

ZACH MERRETT Talent Profile © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com Zach Merrett was selected with pick 26 in the 2013 National Draft. A highly rated junior, Merrett wasted no time making an impact at the Bombers. NATIONALITY CAPABILITIES Australian Clinics Ambassador DATE OF BIRTH Social Media 10/3/95 PR Campaign Appearances TEAMS INTERESTS Cobden Melbourne Grammar Health & Nutrition Sandringham Dragons Lifestyle Essendon Leadership Family Business Animals © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com BIO Zach Merrett grew up in Cobden, Victoria before boarding at Melbourne Grammar School on a cricket scholarship. After another solid season in 2015, Merrett was promoted to the Essendon Leadership Group ahead of the 2016 season, and if he hadn’t already convinced the AFL world he was a genuine star in the making, his 2016 season put it beyond doubt. Merrett collected 657 possessions over the season, the most ever recorded by a Bomber’s player in one year. He went on to win the club Best and Fairest, and captained his side in the last few games of the season. In 2017 Merrett was named Vice-Captain of the Bombers, and continued his fine form from the previous year. He picked up his first selection in the All-Australian side, and in 2018 played his 100th game after barely missing a game since his debut. The classy midfielder will be one of the key players and leaders at Essendon for many years to come, as he looks to add to his already illustrious career. © TLA Worldwide 2020 TLAWorldwide.com Away from football Zach loves American sports and is learning more about business, self improvement and when time permits he heads back home to see his family with his beloved Golden Retriever Maya.

AFL Vic Record Week 4.Indd
VFL Round 1 14 - 17 April 2017 $3.00 Photo: Cameron Grimes New VFL season begins Welcome to season 2017 in the Peter Jackson VFL. Plenty has happened since last September when Footscray was crowned premier. We have seen 13 VFL players provided with an AFL opportunity, selected in the 2016 NAB AFL national and rookie draft s. Casey and Geelong both produced three draft ees, with Coburg, Footscray and North Ballarat providing two draft ees each. The pleasing aspect has been seeing the likes of Tom Stewart, Mitch Hannan, Robbie Fox and Tim Smith debut in the early rounds of the AFL season. The competition this year will feature 14 clubs, with Frankston not provided a VFL licence for the 2017 season. The club has had a rich history of providing a pathway and opportunities for footballers in the region – none more evident than the debut for Sydney in recent weeks of 2014 Fothergill-Round Medal winner Nic Newman. However, it was decided at the end of last year that without the necessary off -field structures in place, AFL Victoria was not confident financial projections provided by the club could be met. We have a strong willingness to ensure there is a VFL presence in the region into the future, but it must be viable and sustainable both on and off the field in the long term. This has been highlighted in the regular communication AFL Victoria has had with the new board at the club. In other pre-season news, at the VFL Season Launch last week we revealed there will be a triple-header of matches for the 2017 Victorian state league Grand Final day at Etihad Stadium on Sunday September 24.
