Ewan Mackinlay went from North Adelaide to the AFL via pick 11 in the 2025 mid-season draft, and made his debut in Port Adelaide's final match of that season with 15 disposals, 4 tackles and a goal. A quick midfielder who works hard into space, the 182cm South Australian has since become a regular in the No.31 guernsey. He has played 15 AFL games and kicked 7 goals.
