Ryan Maric (born 6 September 2004) is a professional Australian rules footballer who plays with the West Coast Eagles Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).

Early career

[edit]

Maric grew up in the West Gippsland town of Drouin. When he was 15 he had a growth spurt and gained 30cm in height. After the growth spurt caused some back issues and then a dose of glandular fever, he became overweight.[1] Maric then worked hard to get to his current playing weight.[2][3] During 2023, he played for four different teams; Gippsland Power, Victoria Country, the Young Guns and the Box Hill Hawks. His two games at Box Hill yielded 4 goals.

AFL career

[edit]

Maric was the first player picked in the 2023 mid-season draft.[4] He received an eighteen-month contract with the Eagles.[5] Maric played one game in the WAFL before getting called up to make his debut against Adelaide in Adelaide.[6] Maric kicked a goal with his first kick in AFL football.[7]

2025: Switch to the backline as a medium defender

[edit]

At the start of the 2025 season Maric was placed into the backline, playing a defensive role as a medium defender being switched from the forward and wing roles he played in the 2023 and 2024 seasons.[8]
