Daniel Curtin

Daniel Curtin has not played any of the last 5 games for Adelaide.

Daniel Curtin is a professional Australian rules footballer who was selected by the Adelaide Football Club as the number 8 pick in the 2023 AFL draft. He previously played for Claremont in the WAFL.

Curtin played for the Claremont Football Club in his junior career. Curtin was selected in the All-Australian team after the 2023 AFL Under 18 Championships and captained the Claremont Colts team to the 2023 premiership. He excelled at both senior and State level throughout the 2023 season.

Curtin was selected by Adelaide at pick number 8 in the 2023 national draft after the Crows traded up in a deal with Greater Western Sydney which saw them give up pick number 11 and 15 in return for pick number 8 and 17. Curtin seemed a perfect suitor for Adelaide, who were lacking defensive height due to the departure of Tom Doedee and the injuries of Nick Murray and Jordon Butts. A versatile player who played as a defender, forward and midfield during his junior career, Curtin was projected to be a top 5 pick but dropped down to pick number 8.
