The superstar big man’s resurgence from a pair of knee reconstructions continued last season as he dominated in the middle on the way to back-to-back John Worsfold Medals as the West Coast Eagles’ Club Champion. Naitanui’s influence around the contest also catapulted him to the top of the Official AFL Player Ratings as the game’s best player, and he richly deserved a second-straight All-Australian blazer – the third of his career. The immensely popular big man reached the 200-game milestone in round 18 against Adelaide and, fittingly, the Eagles overcame the Crows to celebrate in style. Heading into his 14th season, Naitanui is at the top of his craft and critical to the Eagles’ ambitions in 2022.
