Sam Murray

Defender
2018
Collingwood Magpies
Sam Murray, a talented Australian rules footballer, has had a fascinating journey in the Australian Football League (AFL). Born on 2 September 1997, Murray began his professional career with the Collingwood Football Club after being traded from the Sydney Swans during the 2017 trade period. Standing tall at 187 cm (6 ft 2 in) and weighing 86 kg (190 lb), Murray is known for his role as a defender on the field. His debut match for Collingwood in the 2018 season against Hawthorn at the Melbourne Cricket Ground showcased his skills and determination. Despite facing challenges, including a suspension due to a positive test for an illicit drug, Murray's resilience and commitment to the sport were evident when he was re-drafted by Collingwood as a rookie in 2019. His return to the AFL in 2020 after an 18-month suspension highlighted his passion for the game. Murray's contributions to Collingwood did not go unnoticed, with his nomination for the 2018 AFL Rising Star award reflecting his potential and talent as a player. Although his journey with Collingwood came to an end in September 2019, Murray's impact on the field and his dedication to the sport remain a significant part of his legacy in Australian football.
