Bio
Hailing from Horsham, Brad Sholl initially joined North Melbourne, where he played alongside his cousin Craig. However, breaking into a developing Kangaroos side proved difficult, and after managing just two senior appearances across the 1993 and 1994 seasons, he sought greater opportunities at Geelong. The move proved to be a career-defining success, as Sholl immediately cemented his spot in the Cats' lineup, playing in the 1995 Grand Final loss to Carlton in his first season at Kardinia Park.
A disciplined and tenacious back pocket, Sholl was renowned for his close-checking defensive work against dangerous small forwards and his reliability by foot on the rebound. His standing at the club reached its peak in 1996 when he won the Carji Greeves Medal as Geelong's best and fairest, a significant achievement given the star power in the Cats' midfield at the time. He remained a defensive mainstay for Geelong throughout the late 1990s, retiring in 2002 as a consistent performer who had successfully revitalised his career after a slow start.
