AFL 2025: Aaron Cadman ready to have breakout season , season preview , key forward development, GWS Giants v Collingwood, latest newsWatch your club in the 2025 Toyota AFL Premiership Season. Stream every round LIVE in 4K, with no ad-breaks during play, on Kayo Sports. New to Kayo?Entering his third AFL season, the emerging key forward is ready to show exactly why the GWS Giants drafted him with the No. 1 pick back in 2022.
“It’s exciting, I feel like I’ve had a really good pre-season. Feeling really fit and strong compared to last season. Super excited to get into games and I feel like I’ve set myself up really well.” Consider this. Of the 14 Coleman medallists this century, only four kicked more goals than Cadman in their second seasons.Of course, there’s no guarantees Cadman, who kicked six goals from 12 games in his first season, continues on his current trajectory. But the well-spoken, motivated and bulked-up youngster certainly fills you with confidence.

“It’s trying to create your own space but also knowing when to hit. Being aggressive but not being too aggressive where you’re going to get slipped.
