Bio
Hailing from Horsham and the GWV Rebels, Joel Freijah was selected by the Western Bulldogs with pick 45 in the 2023 National Draft. Arriving at the Kennel as a tall wingman with a reputation for elite endurance, he earned the nickname "Mini-Bont" from supporters for a physical profile and composed playing style reminiscent of the club captain. Freijah broke into the senior side in Round 9, 2024, initially impressing as a half-back flanker where his intercepting and distribution saw him awarded the club's Best First Year Player award. He evolved into a damaging utility in his second season, pushing further up the ground to utilise his running power on the wing and drift forward to impact the scoreboard. Now established in the Bulldogs' best 22, Freijah is regarded as a versatile link-up player who provides calm delivery under pressure.
