Bio
Selected by North Melbourne with the second overall pick in the 2023 National Draft, Colby McKercher arrived at Arden Street as a highly rated prospect from the Tasmanian Devils. A prolific ball-winner with elite speed and a damaging left foot, he quickly adapted to the tempo of senior football, often utilised across half-back where his line-breaking run and precision kicking became essential for launching attacking chains. With an ability to find space and execute under pressure, McKercher established himself early in his career as a composed distributor and a foundational piece of the Kangaroos' developing core.
