Jack Silvagni (born 17 December 1997) is an Australian rules footballer currently playing for Carlton. He was drafted with the 53rd selection in the 2015 AFL draft under the father–son rule, when Carlton matched Essendon's bid for him.[1] Both his father, Stephen and paternal grandfather, Sergio, played for Carlton and are legends in the club's Hall of Fame.[2]
Silvagni grew up in the Melbourne suburb of Balwyn North and attended Xavier College. He played junior football for both his school, the Greythorn Falcons in the Yarrra Junior Football League, the Oakleigh Chargers in the TAC Cup and Victoria Metro at the AFL Under 18 Championships.[3] His mother is Australian television presenter and model Jo Silvagni, and he has two younger brothers, Ben and Tom.[4]
