Jordan Clark’s trade value may have just shot up with the WA product and Geelong youngster winning the grand final 100-metre sprint beating out St Kilda speedster Brad Hill for line honours.

Clark has been linked to a potential move back to Western Australia through trades to either West Coast or Fremantle and the 20-year-old’s speed no doubt got the attention of recruiters on the biggest stage tonight.

The field included Hill, Brisbane’s Charlie Cameron, Adelaide’s Ben Keays, Gold Coast’s Ben Ainsworth, Collingwood’s Josh Thomas, Richmond’s Bigoa Nyuon and Port Adelaide’s Xavier Duursma.

The West previously reported that Clark is believed to be happy at Geelong and wants to stay with the Cats but has grown frustrated by a lack of opportunity this season.

The Game AFL 2024

After playing 18 games and finishing high in the Rising Star award in 2019, the Claremont product has played only three games in 2020.

Clark is contracted for two years, but the 20-year-old is open to a move back to WA should the situation not improve.

Colgate made a $5,000 donation to Ladder, an AFL player-led charity tackling youth homelessness, in honour of the winner.
