Daniel Stewart, an Australian rules footballer who played for Port Adelaide in the Australian Football League (AFL), died on October 23, 2026, aged 37.
Born on October 30, 1988, he developed through several levels of Australian football before joining Port Adelaide. His junior football included Norwood, an Eastern Football League (EFL) club, and the Eastern Ranges in the Talent League.
He later played for Labrador in AFL Queensland and moved to North Adelaide in the South Australian National Football League (SANFL) in 2008. That progression took him from junior competition into senior state-league football before his AFL recruitment. Port Adelaide selected Stewart with the 35th pick in the 2009 rookie draft. He remained with North Adelaide for the 2009 SANFL season, then was promoted to Port Adelaide’s senior list at the end of that AFL season. His career path thus included spells with clubs in the EFL, Talent League, AFL Queensland and SANFL before his place on Port Adelaide’s senior list. Stewart played for Port Adelaide in the AFL, linking the club’s senior team with the earlier stages of his football career. The available biographical record identifies his playing career through that progression, from junior football at Norwood and Eastern Ranges to Labrador and North Adelaide, and his subsequent move onto Port Adelaide’s senior list.
