A lifelong Essendon fan, Zaharakis made a memorable start to his career at Windy Hill last year, earning a NAB AFL Rising Star nomination after his first game and winning the Anzac Day game with a long goal in the dying seconds. Endured groin problems towards the end of the year, but the club is hoping a good pre-season will ensure the midfielder capitalises on his promising start.

Draft history: 2008 NAB AFL Draft 2nd round selection (Essendon) No. 23 overall.
