Career highlights

Jonathon Ross (born 3 November 1973) is a former Australian rules footballer in the Australian Football League. He played with the Adelaide Crows.

A well-built, strong key position player, Jonathon Ross had the potential to go far. However, his career was hampered by knee injuries and off-field drama and after playing 12 games in his debut season (1992) he managed just eight more games in the next four years. He was offered a chance at Collingwood but lost his place for disciplinary reasons.[1]

As of the end of the 2009 AFL season, Ross still holds the record for the most Free Kicks Against in a single AFL game.[2] In Round 16, 1992, Ross had 10 Frees Against.

He is the son of former St Kilda player Lester Ross.
