Ed Vickers-Willis (born 28 March 1996) is a professional Australian rules footballer playing for the North Melbourne Football Club in the Australian Football League (AFL). He was drafted by North Melbourne with their third selection and thirty-sixth overall in the 2014 national draft.[1] Vickers-Willis attended Melbourne Grammar School and was also captain of the school in 2014.[2] He made his debut in the five point loss against Fremantle at Domain Stadium in round five of the 2017 season.[3]

After rupturing his posterior cruciate ligament in Round 7, 2018, Vickers-Willis returned to senior football in Round 1 2019 against Fremantle. This was Vickers-Willis’ only match of the 2019 season due to an anterior cruciate ligament injury sustained in the first quarter.[4]
