Nathanael Blair

The towering striker started his junior career at National Premier League icons APIA Leichhardt in their U13s squad where he played in three age groups before making the switch to Northbridge.

After a year away from the game, Blair returned to APIA at the start of 2022 and made an immediate impact, scoring the winner in Round 2’s fixture against Manly United.

The 17-year-old is set to play in his first season of the A-Leagues and is signed on a scholarship deal with the club until the end of 2023/24.
