He may be a youngster in the Devils under-19 squad, but Seth Campbell certainly hasn’t looked out of place on the field this season. The Burnie Dockers product has appeared in every game in the NAB League and played his role perfectly as the Devils have climbed into finals contention.
A half forward with the ability to push higher up the ground, Campbell has averaged 12.1 disposals, 3.3 marks and 3 tackles per game in the NAB League this season. Included in that are a handful of standout games, including a season-high 19 disposals in a win over the Dandenong Stingrays and a two-goal haul in a close victory against the Sydney Swans Academy.
While he is a forward by trade, Campbell’s willingness to run hard and help the team to defend has made him a valuable contributor right across the ground. His pace gives the Devils plenty of run and carry, and with good vision with ball in hand he is a constant threat around the attacking 50.
An under-17 already excelling in the under-19 side, Campbell has plenty of potential and is one to keep a close eye on in the future. For now, though, it’s time to learn a little more about him…
