Bio
Recruited from the Sandringham Dragons with pick 21 in the 2020 National Draft, Jake Bowey is the son of former St Kilda player Brett Bowey, although he was not eligible for father-son selection. A composed small defender known for his precise kicking and decision-making, Bowey quickly became integral to Melbourne's ball movement, often tasked with distributing from the back half. He enjoyed a historic start to his career, breaking into the senior side late in 2021 to become a Premiership player in just his seventh game and setting a VFL/AFL record by winning his first 17 consecutive matches. While he has occasionally had to fight for his spot in a formidable defensive unit, Bowey has settled into a role as a classy rebounding defender who provides calmness under pressure.
