Jye Amiss Biography

Jye Amiss reveals how a focus on the mental side of football has helped fuel his emergence as one of the competition's most dangerous key forwards.

"You come into the AFL and you want to improve your footy and improve your skills, but then over time you learn how important the mental game is, and now I see it as 50-50 with the physical and mental side," Amiss said.

"I've done a lot of work on that with our sports psych at the club, I see her every week, and I think that's really helped me in those moments to understand that where it may not be your quarter, or it might not be your game, it can be your moment.

"Whether it's your next contest or the next time you're around the ball, it gives you that mentality that you can move on and you don't have to hang on to stuff."

Fremantle will allow Jye Amiss to roam forward in an effort to improve his form after struggling to make an impact this season.

"We'll look at moving him around a little bit more and making sure that he's not always just the deepest forward. We'll help him by getting him up the ground a little bit more at times and getting him involved," Dockers coach John Longmuir said.

Jye Amiss is the AFL Rising Star nominee for round 11 of 2023.

Amiss collected 14 disposals (six contested), three tackles, 336m gained, had two goal assists and six score involvements to go with his three majors to be a key player in the Dockers' fourth win on the trot against Melbourne.

Jye Amiss makes his AFL debut for Fremantle at Perth Stadium with 9 disposals (7 kicks and 2 handballs), 5 marks and 2 goals in a 78-point win over North Melbourne.

Fremantle select Jye Amiss with pick No.8 in the 2021 National Draft.

Draft Report: If 51.14 in 14 WAFL Colts games ? 16 goals more than the second-ranked player Jack Williams - wasn't convincing enough, the athletic tall enhanced his credentials as the second best key forward in the draft pool behind Oakleigh Chargers gun Sam Darcy further in the national carnival opener. Amiss, who is brilliant on the lead and strong overhead, booted two majors ? including a spectacular effort from the boundary line ? from 12 disposals and six marks against South Australia. The Dockers are circling with one of their first two picks.
