Originally hailing from Western Australia, Sam Powell-Pepper has made a name for himself as a player with thirst for the ball, capable of devastating bursts when the Sherrin is in his hands. Playing primarily as a high pressure forward, Powell-Pepper has found his spot on the ground and makes it his own - playing hard, consistent football.
A popular playing group member, Powell-Pepper was elevated to the leadership group in 2023 and has used his time off the field to develop his leadership skills. Currently rehabbing a serious knee injury, he enters 2026 with a fresh hunger for the game - ready to once again make his signature impact on-field.
