Watch David Zaharakis in action

Date of birth: 21/2/90
Height: 182cm
Weight: 72kg
Club: Northern Knights

Bio: Zaharakis is a quick and agile midfielder with a penetrating kick. He represented Vic Metro at the NAB AFL Under-18 Championships and earned All-Australian selection. Originally from Marcellin College FC.

Jason McCartney says: David was draft age last year and was overlooked. He's in the leadership group at the Northern Knights and is just a super-quality kid and is an in-and-under type player with a great work ethic. You can really see why he was one of the leaders at the club.

He sets a positive example by the way he plays and has firm values that he lives his life by. He got a kick in the guts last year in not being drafted, but he's hit back really well this year.
