Early life and career

Petrevski-Seton is Indigenous Australian, and also has Macedonian ancestry on his mother's side – his maternal grandfather immigrated from Macedonia. He grew up speaking Kriol as his first language, and did not learn standard English until moving to Perth to board at Clontarf Aboriginal College, which he attended from 2013 to 2015. Outside of playing football, Petrevski-Seton enjoyed competitive bull riding, which he took up at the age of 12. [1]

[6] He made his debut in the opening round of the 2017 season, playing in Carlton's 43-point loss to Richmond at the Melbourne Cricket Ground. [7] After his team's 23-point win against Collingwood at the MCG in round seven, in which he recorded 21 disposals, four marks, three tackles and two goals, he was nominated for the 2017 AFL Rising Star.

In his second season, Petreveski-Seton played all 22 games in 2018. He averaged 16.1 disposals, and kicked 5 goals for the year. He also averaged 4.3 tackles per match.
