A prolific ball-winning defender and an astute decision maker. Has built a reputation as one of the competition’s best kicks. An U18 All Australian, Daniel arrived at the Kennel from South Adelaide via pick 46 overall in the 2014 NAB AFL Draft. After debuting in Round 14, 2015 and playing 10 games, Daniel played 24 games in season 2016 and finished runner-up in the NAB AFL Rising Star award to Sydney's Callum Mills. Daniel had the last laugh though, as a member of the Western Bulldogs' Grand Final winning side that defeated the Swans to claim the 2016 AFL Premiership. Playing 20 games in both 2017 and 2018 predominantly as a midfield/forward, Daniel transitioned to a full-time role in defence in 2019. He continued this role into 2020, enjoying a career-best season to claim the Charles Sutton Medal, earn maiden All-Australian honours, and notch up his 100th senior game.
