About Me

Me, Myself, and I
Traded to Collingwood from Fremantle with selection No.8 in the 2006 draft for Chris Tarrant, Medhurst joins the Magpies after five seasons and 99 games with the Dockers. Was twice Fremantle’s leading goalkicker (2003, 2004), with his best season coming in 2003 when he booted 50 goals. Fell out of favour with the Fremantle selectors towards the end of 2006 and felt he needed a change. Is considered an excellent overhead mark despite standing just 178 centimetres, and with his ability to also crumb very effectively, can provide opposition coaches with match-up problems. Fremantle wanted him to bulk up to play almost as a key forward, but 25-year-old is looking to shed a few kilograms in the hope of being able to spend more time up the ground for the Magpies.
