Patrick Voss (born 29 June 2003) is an Australian rules footballer who plays with the Fremantle Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Voss grew up in the Riverina region of New South Wales and played for the Turvey Park Bulldogs in Wagga Wagga, which enabled him to join the Greater Western Sydney Giants junior academy program. [1] He later moved to boarding school in Melbourne where he attended Wesley College in Glen Waverley and played for the Oakleigh Chargers in the Under 18's Talent League. [2]
After being overlooked by GWS who had the rights to draft Voss via the academy rules, he was drafted by Essendon with the ninth selection in the 2022 rookie draft. He spent two years at Essendon, but did not make his AFL debut before being delisted at the end of the 2023 AFL season, despite winning their VFL team's best and fairest award and being their leading goal kicker. [3] [4]
Voss was one of four players invited to train with Fremantle before the 2024 AFL season. He was eventually successful in being selected during the pre-season supplemental selection period. [5] In late April he was picked to play his first AFL game against the Western Bulldogs in round 7 of the 2024 AFL season. [6] He achieved the rare feat of kicking a goal with his first kick. Voss signed a two-year contract extension at the season's end, to remain at Fremantle until at least 2026. [7]
Voss had a strong start to his second year at Fremantle, playing 4 out of the first 5 games, competing in the forward line and as a second ruck. He collected 10 disposals, 9 hit-outs and kicked a goal in round five against Richmond, which was played at Lyndoch Recreation Park in Adelaide, as part of the AFL's annual Gather Round. Voss received a three-match suspension after the game for striking Richmond player Nick Vlastuin in a tackle. [8] [9]
Voss made his return for the Dockers in round nine against Collingwood at Optus Stadium, kicking two goals during the match. [10] Voss kicked a career-high six goals in round nineteen against Collingwood at the MCG. [11] He kicked nine goals across the next three weeks to continue his run of strong form. [12]
