Nathan Wilson (born 7 January 1993) is a professional Australian rules footballer who played for the Fremantle Football Club and the Greater Western Sydney Giants in the Australian Football League (AFL).
Wilson was recruited from Peel Thunder by Greater Western Sydney as an underage selection at the age of 17.[1] Wilson spent 2011 playing for GWS in the newly established North East Australian Football League (NEAFL), as preparation for Greater Western Sydney's entrance into the Australian Football League.[2]
Wilson made his debut in round 1 of the 2012 AFL season during Greater Western Sydney's inaugural game against the Sydney Swans at ANZ Stadium kicking a goal on debut.[3] He finished his debut season having played 9 games.[4]
At the end of the 2017 season, he was traded to the Fremantle Football Club.[5]
In April 2023 Wilson was subjected to racial and homophobic abuse on social media, along with teammate Michael Walters,[6][7] which was being investigated by AFL's integrity unit.[8]
At the conclusion of the 2023 AFL season, Wilson along with teammates Travis Colyer and Eric Benning were informed that they would not be offered contracts in 2024, seemingly ending Wilson's football career after 12 years in the AFL.[9]
