Junior clubs: Mt Martha (VIC)/Dandenong Stingrays (VIC)
AFL clubs: Carlton
Carlton Debut: Round 1, 2016
Recruited from: Dandenong Stingrays (VIC)
Brownlow Medal votes: 3

Jacob Weitering has established himself as one of the competition’s best backman since his transition from the forward line to defence. 

The No.1 draft pick in 2015, Weitering has grown into a strong leader for the Club, being named vice-co captain alongside Sam Walsh at the beginning of 2022.

The 2020 John Nicholls Medallist has proven himself many times, taking on the best tall forwards in the competition and nullifying their impact on numerous occasions. 

Thriving in one-on-one battles, Weitering has been one of the best defenders in the AFL across recent seasons, being a consistent and reliable player in an ever-changing defensive line-up.
