Career highlights

Michael Jamison (born 11 June 1986) is an Australian rules footballer with the Carlton Football Club in the Australian Football League.

Jamison is a key defender, particularly good against leading players, who has played for several years at the North Ballarat Football Club, with his under-18s football at the Rebels, and then reserves and seniors with the Roosters. Jamison was invited to train with the Carlton Football Club in the 2006/07 offseason, presumably on advice from Carlton assistant coach and outgoing Roosters head coach Gavin Crosisca. Carlton then selected Jamison as a rookie with their second selection in the 2006/07 AFL rookie draft (17th pick overall).

As a rookie, Jamison began the 2007 season playing with Carlton's VFL affiliate, the Northern Bullants. After the retirement of Anthony Koutoufides, Jamison was promoted to the senior list and made a successful senior debut against Collingwood in Round 18. He will begin 2008 as a nominated rookie.
