Squad

Players are listed by guernsey number, and 2015 statistics are for AFL regular season and finals series matches during the 2015 AFL season only. Career statistics include a player's complete AFL career, which, as a result, means that a player's debut and part or whole of their career statistics may be for another club. Statistics are correct of Round 23 of the 2015 season (6 September 2015) and are taken from AFL Tables
