Robertson

Meg Robertson arrived at Carlton after being selected with pick No.31 in the 2023 AFLW Draft. Robertson joins the Blues as a father-daughter selection, with her dad Ben Robertson playing three games for the Blues in 1992. In doing so, Robertson joins Abbie McKay as Carlton’s second father-daughter selection. Throughout 2023, Robertson established herself as a highly promising midfield prospect, representing Vic Country in the national championships as well as the Dandenong Stingrays in the Coates Talent League, finishing runner-up in their best and fairest. A cross-code athlete as a talented junior basketballer, Robertson recently made the decision to dedicate herself to her football, and that well and truly paid dividends this year. The 18-year-old has a natural ability to read the play, using her clean hands and creativity to dispose of the ball through traffic. A key feature of Robertson’s game is her speed, breaking through congestion and using her run and carry to set her team up offensively. Mainly playing as a midfielder, Robertson can also play as a high half-forward with class around goal.

After missing a portion of 2022 due to injury, Meg Robertson returned in a big way for the Dandenong Stingrays, providing a crucial inside presence through the midfield. Her natural footy IQ combined with her clean hands made her a constant throughout the Talent League season and national carnival and put her name up in lights to be drafted.

Recruired from Berwick via Dandenong Stingrays.
