Arriving at Port Adelaide after being selected with Pick 55 in the 2021 NAB AFL National Draft, Hugh Jackson grew up supporting Port Adelaide from his home in South Australia’s mid-north. Since then Jackson has impressed at Under 18 level with the Roosters, averaging 29.3 disposals and showing an ability to play in the centre or on the wing.

Known for his smooth left foot, Jackson has drawn flattering comparisons to some of the league’s classiest midfielders. His versatility and clean hands puts him in good stead to continue to develop into a match-ready AFL player.
