Bio

1 revision

The younger brother of former Sun and Saint Maverick Weller, Lachie Weller was originally a member of the Gold Coast Suns Academy before being secured by Fremantle with pick 13 in the 2014 National Draft. After three promising seasons in the west where he showcased his potential as a running midfielder, he requested a trade back to the Gold Coast in 2017. The subsequent deal became one of the most debated transactions of the modern era, as the Suns parted with pick 2 to secure his return, placing immediate pressure on Weller to justify the hefty price tag.

On the field, Weller evolved into a damaging line-breaker, utilising his elite speed and silky foot skills primarily off half-back and along the wing to transition the ball into attack. He became a fixture of the Suns' leadership group and a reliable contributor before his career was stalled by significant durability issues. Successive ACL injuries in 2022 and 2023 severely limited his on-field presence during his prime years, shifting his focus to rehabilitation as he fights to regain continuity and re-establish himself in the senior lineup.
