Our Season Summary looks back at how each GIANTS player fared during the 2015 AFL season.
Name: Lachie Plowman
Number: 30
2015 Games: 2 AFL, 9 NEAFL
AFL Fantasy Average: 57
Awards: Nil
Background: Lachie Plowman was selected with pick 3 in the 2012 NAB AFL Draft.
Best Game: AFL Round 22 v Carlton - 20 disposals, 2 marks, 3 tackles, 4 one-percenters.
Summary: Unfortunately for Plowman 2015 was a year of playing catch-up after the defender dislocated his elbow in the very first training session of the year. The nasty injury saw the 21-year-old return to AFL almost eight months after the initial incident. He played nine games in the NEAFL to regain fitness and form before being elevated against Carlton in Round 22. Plowman finished off the season strongly but found it frustrating having to overcome such a serious injury so early in the year.
Pat On The Back: Playing 18 games in his first two seasons, Plowman had a grounding year but remained positive and up-beat at training and around the club.
What They Said: “It’s been exciting. Not frustrating but a bit annoying I couldn’t be out there enjoying some of the success the other boys were having, but hopefully we’re moving on to bigger and better things soon enough.” - Lachie Plowman.
Look Ahead: Now fully recovered from his elbow injury, Plowman will hopefully be able to complete a full pre-season and play more senior games in 2016.
