“Unveiling the Jaw-Dropping Highlights of the 2023 AFL Draft – You Won’t Believe the Game-Changing Picks!”
The three-day spectacle kicked off at Marvel Stadium on Monday night, where the National Draft’s first-round selections saw the Demons snagging Caleb Windsor at No.7 and Koltyn Tholstrup at No.13.
Skipping the second-round selections on Tuesday, Melbourne made a splash in the Rookie Draft on Wednesday. They re-selected fan-favorite Jake Melksham and welcomed Kynan Brown under the father-son rule, setting the stage for an exciting 2024 pre-season.
Meet Melbourne’s New Additions:

Caleb Windsor, the rapid winger from Eastern Ranges, brings a unique blend of speed, endurance, and goal-scoring flair. Melbourne’s National Recruiting Manager, Jason Taylor, is thrilled with the addition, praising Windsor’s speed, endurance, and goal-scoring prowess.
Koltyn Tholstrup | Pick No.13 | Subiaco
Height: 186cm
