Noah Anderson (born 17 February 2001) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the Gold Coast Suns in the Australian Football League (AFL).

Early life

Anderson was born in Melbourne to mother Fiona and father Dean Anderson (two-time AFL premiership player).[1][2] Anderson participated in the Auskick program at Glenferrie in Hawthorn, Victoria[3] and played junior football for the Hawthorn Citizens Junior Football Club in the Yarra Junior Football League at a young age and made his first representative side when he was chosen to represent the under-12 Victorian state team.[4] He attended Carey Baptist Grammar School with future Gold Coast teammate Matthew Rowell throughout their teenage years.[5] As Anderson progressed through the junior ranks, he was given an opportunity to debut in the TAC Cup for the Oakleigh Chargers at 16 years of age. In 2019, he was named in the under-18 All-Australian team for his impressive performances in the AFL Under 18 Championships and played a pivotal role in Oakleigh's NAB League premiership season.

AFL career

Anderson was recruited by the Gold Coast Suns with the 2nd pick in the 2019 AFL draft,[6] alongside best friend Matthew Rowell, who was also drafted by the Suns with the number 1 pick.[7] Anderson made his AFL debut against Port Adelaide at Metricon Stadium in round 1 of the 2020 AFL season.[8] He played all 17 games in the 2020 season, which was shortened due to the COVID-19 pandemic. He finished 2nd in the AFL Rising Star Award behind Caleb Serong[9]

Anderson played the first 14 games of the 2021 season at an average of 22 disposals before fracturing his hand in the Suns' round 15 match against North Melbourne.[10] Anderson underwent surgery for this injury and missed 2 matches, returning in round 18 against the Western Bulldogs.[11] He was named in the 40 man squad for the AFL's 22 under 22 team following the season.[12]

2022

Anderson was promoted to the Gold Coast's leadership group prior to the start of the 2022 season. He played 21 games for the season and averaged 26 disposals and 6 clearances. He was named in the final 2022 AFL 22 under 22 team.[13] In the 2022 Brownlow Medal count, Anderson received 14 votes, being voted best on ground 3 times.[14] Round 17 saw Anderson kick a goal after the siren to win the game against Richmond.[15]

2023

During the 2023 pre-season, Anderson signed a four-year contract extension with the Suns, through to the end of the 2027 season.[16] He was named Gold Coast Club Champion at the season's end.[17]
