Lachlan Gollant (born 12 September 2001) is an Australian rules footballer who currently plays for the Williamstown Football Club in the Victorian Football League (VFL). He previously played for Adelaide in the Australian Football League (AFL) after being selected with the 48th pick of the 2019 national draft.
Gollant, a Melbourne native, attended Penleigh and Essendon Grammar School. He is a great-nephew of former North Melbourne captain Vic Lawrence and his biological played for North Melbourne at under-19s level. [1]
A Calder Cannons recruit, Gollant was selected by Adelaide with the 48th pick of the 2019 national draft. [2]
Gollant made his league debut in the final home and away round of the 2021 AFL season. In the first Showdown of 2022, Gollant kicked a career best four goals in Adelaide's after-the-siren win over Port Adelaide. [3]
For the second consecutive year, Gollant was Adelaide's leading goalkicker in the SANFL in 2024. His season included an eight-goal game against West Adelaide, for which he was awarded with the Neil Kerley Medal, given to the player best on ground in that fixture. [4] Gollant's performance was rewarded with a promotion to the AFL squad in round 23, replacing the injured Taylor Walker. [5]
Despite good SANFL form, an inability to produce form at senior level resulted in Gollant being delisted by Adelaide following the 2024 season. [6] He signed for Williamstown in the Victorian Football League (VFL) following his delisting. [7]
