Harrison Chapman scouting report
Harrison Chapman is the 2026 draft’s premier "new-age transitionist." A 189cm rangy athlete from the Eastern Ranges, he is the only player from his club selected for the National Academy this year. Renowned for his "smooth movement" and elite aerobic capacity, Chapman established himself as a premier wingman in the Ranges' 2025 premiership side. He is an effective "link-man" who thrives on the outside expanses, using his bounding speed and surgical decision-making to transport the ball from end-to-end. With a recent move into the midfield and a stint training at Hawthorn, he is evolving into a versatile, high-possession utility who can impact the game in every corridor.

More from the scouting notes
Chapman specifically models his game on Anderson’s elite running ability and "inside-to-outside" transition. At 189cm, he mirrors Anderson’s height and tactical versatility, utilizing a massive engine to outwork opponents and act as the primary distributor in possession chains.
