The North Melbourne Kangaroos have selected Ella Maurer with pick 56 in the 2021 NAB AFLW Draft.

The Tasmanian recruit featured for the Tasmanian Devils over the last two seasons.

“Ella’s improvement has been significant and we were really impressed with her form across all levels this season,” Harwood said.

“We love Ella’s work around the footy. She has great hands, she’s clean when the pressure is on, and she has great speed.

“She has genuine size and power for an inside player, which is something we’ve been looking for.

“She has a great ability to attack the ball and take the game on. We look forward to seeing her develop in our program.”
