Mitchell Marsh

West Adelaide| Tall Forward

THE BISON

Not to be mistaken for his cricketing namesake, Marsh hits bombs on his left foot which often go for six. He was the sole West Adelaide prospect in the state squad but made his presence felt, leading the National Championships’ goalkicking charts with 12 majors in four games en route to All-Australian honours. Marsh has an array of traits which align with top 10 contendership; athleticism, running capacity, aerial ability, and a keen eye for goal. At 191cm he has even chopped out in the ruck for Westies and is the type of player you want two of in your lineup. His speed off the mark as a moving target makes him a dangerous player forward of the ball, and one who well and truly established himself among the top-end of the draft crop. He helped West Adelaide into its first Under 18 finals appearance since 2021, finishing second on the ladder, but ultimately falling short in the Grand Final.

AFL Draft Power Rankings: September 2025

Rookie Me Central's September Power Rankings instalment features three fresh faces, helping shake up the end-of-season update.

Interesting to see where he fits going forward. Too short to play as the 1st or 2nd forward, but would be handy as a third forward. Very different playing style to Fritta but essentially that position.

Our medium fwd stocks are a bit bare. Fritta hopefully has a few years left but Melk probably has 1, Mihochek 2-3.

Heard from a scout that we were bullish on him earlier in the year but have since cooled.

Clips show that he can make space well but would this happen at top level?

Like his kicking style.

It’d be nice to select a kid from Victoria.

He should be watching James Sicily highlights. Needs to round out his game and become a switchable player. Elite kick.

In some form at the moment but doubtful he'll make the team.

Do you know why they cooled?

Injury or picks such as Miochek?

"Hears footsteps" is what I was told.

Strange, I hear voices.

An ordinary looking tweener.

I just came to check if we're suddenly interested in the bison.

I’m always suss on taking key forwards early in the first round, unless they’re a clear cut above like a Cadman or Walter in recent years

Hopefully we continue to add to our mid, half back and small forward stocks ahead of guys like Marsh and Schubert
