Brent Reilly
Reilly made his debut for the Crows in 2002, establishing himself as a regular in the side in the latter half of the 2004 season, the year he earned a nomination for the AFL Rising Star award. Boasting a long, pinpoint kick, Reilly played mostly through the midfield until 2012, when he reinvented himself as a rebounding defender. His form was rewarded with All-Australian squad selection in 2012, the same year he was inducted as an Adelaide Football Club Life Member. Back at West Lakes after a season as Assistant Coach at Henley Football Club in the Adelaide Football League, Reilly will mentor Adelaide’s young defenders.
