The North Melbourne Kangaroos have selected key defender Kallan Dawson with pick No.2 in the 2022 NAB AFL Mid-Season Rookie Draft.
Dawson, 23, joins the Roos from VFL side Williamstown.
General Manager Football Talent Brady Rawlings was thrilled to bolster the club's defensive stocks.
"Kallan is a 23-year-old key defender from Williamstown," he said.
"He’s played all this year down back in the VFL. He’s a good intercept mark, he’s put on 10-11 kilos in the last two seasons so he’s got his body ready for AFL footy.
"He’s got good speed, good judgement in the air and he’s been quite skilful and safe with the ball in hand."
Dawson was the only player selected by the Kangaroos after they opted to pass at their second selection (pick No.17).
