Statement from AFL Players’ Association CEO Paul Marsh: 

The AFL Players’ Association is shattered by the passing of Adam Selwood. 

On behalf of the AFLPA Board, members and staff, we wish to express our sincerest condolences to the Selwood family, Adam’s friends and former teammates, and offer our ongoing support to all members and families that need it.  

 The Selwoods are a much loved and admired family and Adam was a man of enormous courage, spirit, and leadership – qualities that are universally admired. Adam was an AFLPA Delegate and then a Board member during his playing career and his impact on the AFLPA and our members will live on and his loss will be felt by so many. 

The AFLPA continues to offer free and confidential wellbeing support nationwide to all current and past player members as well as their significant others.
