Greater Western Sydney GIANTS' Number One Draft Pick Jonathon Patton will make his AFL debut this Saturday, June 16, against Richmond at ŠKODA Stadium.

The nineteen year old had a delayed start to his pre-season with the GIANTS after undergoing knee surgery in Sweden in January but made a strong recovery with solid performances recently for the UWS GIANTS in the NEAFL.

Recruited from the Eastern Ranges, Patton was a stand out up forward for VIC Metro in the 2011 NAB AFL Under 18 Championships and was named in the forward line of the 2011 Under 18 All Australian squad.

This Saturday the GIANTS will also welcome back Israel Folau, who missed the last two games due to a hamstring injury.
