Season by Season

An athletic ruckman and key position player, Stanley was recruited at pick number 47 in the 2008 AFL National Draft.

He impressed in the first eight games of the 2012 season before two serious hamstring injuries had him on the sidelines for most of the second half of the year.

When he was fit, Stanley played crucial roles as a tall forward and back-up ruckman, and will be looking to continue his development with a consistent run of games in 2013.

Rhys was drafted from SANFL side West Adelaide during the 2008 National Draft at #47 overall.

He made his debut in round 9 of the 2010 season against West Coast Eagles, impressing with nine disposals, three marks, four kicks and five handballs.

Rhys, who comes from Berri, a small country town in South Australia around the corner from teammate Sam Fisher, stands at 200cm, equal tallest at the Club.

Rhys only played two senior games in the 2011 season before a hamstring injury forced him out of the second half of the year.

As an athletic player, he has the ability to perform in the ruck to provide a back-up to Ben McEvoy, but can also perform in the forward line as a fellow tall option to Nick Riewoldt.

He has fantastic speed for his height, which was proven when he won the Grand Final sprint in 2009.
