Another of the early movers in 2025, Grlj has been making the most of his opportunity playing onball for Oakleigh to maximise some of the traits we saw last season. His pace is electric, and he uses it to quickly close down opponents or break lines with the ball, one mazy run in particular which saw him sidestepping opponents and leaving them in his wake was very reminiscent of last season's Chargers number 5. In this game he barely put a foot wrong with ball in hand, his skills neat and precise. Hopefully he can up his disposal count as the season progresses by developing his stoppage work and finding more uncontested footy on the spread.
Thanks noobermensch . Grlj was my preseason pick for the biggest riser, starved of midfield time last year due to FOS, Jagga and Gross. I think his attributes (speed, line breaking) will be particularly appealing for WCE. Him and Lindsay would be my choices for the Hawks 1R pick if we don’t trade it/trade up. Noob’s video on his futures game last year worth a look too for those interested in seeing what he brings to the table, particularly in the first half.
