Mani Liddy is a strong, contested midfielder with the ability to hit the scoreboard. The 24-year-old Central Districts product was selected with pick 17 of the 2025 mid-season draft after an impressive 2025 SANFL season which included winning the Fos Williams Medal as the SANFL’s best player in the state game against the WAFL.
Liddy made his AFL debut just 18 days after finding himself on an AFL list, owing to his skill and ready-made ability. He managed a total of nine games in the season. Unfortunately a hip injury hampered his second year on Port Adelaide's list, unable to make it onto the park in the 2026 season.
Liddy was informed he would not be offered a contract in 2027, bringing his chapter at Alberton to a close.
