Hugo hops to Roos

He had to wait until pick 48, but Geelong Falcon Hugo Mikunda has found an AFL home after being drafted by North Melbourne.

The Bell Park product was the Roos’ third selection in the National Draft.

FALCONS IN FOCUS: HUGO MIKUNDA

A midfielder/half forward, Mikunda was a standout for Vic Country at the under-18 National Championships.

He also featured at VFL level with Werribee, gathering 15 disposals for seven score involvement in his lone appearance.

However, Mikunda didn’t test at the National Combine due to a hamstring injury.

He was the second Falcon to find an AFL home during the National Draft, following Josh Lindsay, who joined West Coast with pick 19.
