Lachlan Ash (born 21 June 2001) is an Australian rules footballer who plays for the Greater Western Sydney Giants in the Australian Football League (AFL). He was recruited by the Greater Western Sydney Giants with the 4th draft pick in the 2019 AFL draft.[1][2][3]

Early football

[edit | edit source]

Ash was born in Katandra, Victoria where he participated in the Auskick program.[4] He played junior football in Katandra Football Club and senior football at the Shepparton Football Club.[5] Ash represented Vic Country at the AFL Under 18 Championships for the 2018 and 2019 seasons.[6][7] He also played for the Murray Bushrangers for two seasons in the NAB League.[8][9][10]

AFL career

[edit | edit source]

Ash debuted in the Giants' twenty-four point loss against the Western Bulldogs in the third round of the 2020 AFL season.[11][12][13] Ash collected seven disposals and three marks.[14] Ash took home the club's Rising Star award at the conclusion of the season,[15] and had a career-best game in his team's 39 point loss to rivals Western Bulldogs in the 6th round of the 2021 AFL season, where he collected 35 disposals and 15 marks to be one of the Greater Western Sydney' best on ground that game.[16][17]

In 2023, Ash adopted a new role under coach Adam Kingsley as a lethal running defender which resulted in a two-year contract extension.[18] He played a career-best 26 games that season as the Giants made a deep run into the finals series.[3] Running out of the defensive 50 alongside Lachie Whitfield, Ash began to epitomise Kingsley's "Orange Tsunami" game style.[19]
