Errol Gulden is the most talented player out of the 2020 NAB AFL draft.
While many thought Braeden Campbell would be the young Swan to take the competition by storm this season, it has been Gulden who has become an important part of a finals-quality team, already proving to be a value pick at 32 in last year’s draft.
Through Sydney’s tough opening set of fixtures, Gulden was remarkable. In the first five games of the season, he averaged 19 disposals, seven marks, five inside 50s and two goal assists a game.

North Melbourne champion David King fancies Melbourne tall Luke Jackson to win this yearâs AFL Rising Star award.
Selected with pick No.3 in the 2019 National Draft, Jacksonâs athleticism, ruck work and aerial prowess makes him an exciting package.
The 19-year-old, who stands at 198cm, gives Demons coach Simon Goodwin added flexibility given he can play in the ruck and as a key forward.
After a quiet debut season, Jackson has become a regular in Melbourneâs side in 2021, averaging 13.7 disposals, 10 hit-outs and 3.2 marks across 13 games this season.
