Early life

Payne was born and raised on the Sunshine Coast[3] where he attended St Andrews Anglican College throughout his upbringing.[4] He played junior football for Noosa AFC in the local Sunshine Coast AFL juniors league.[5][6] At the age of 13, Payne was selected to join the Brisbane Lions Academy after a talent scout caught notice of him playing school football.[7] He was also originally a promising discus thrower, representing Australia at the Oceanic Games. However, at the age of 17 he gave up this opportunity to pursue a career in the AFL instead.[8][9][4] In 2017, Payne represented the Allies in the AFL Under 18 Championships, where he played two games and averaged 9.5 disposals per match.[10]

AFL career

Payne played 18 games for the Brisbane Lions in the North East Australian Football League (NEAFL) in 2019, but was unable to break into the side. Payne made his AFL debut in the Lions' 41 point loss to Richmond in the 10th round of the 2020 AFL season.[11][12][13] On debut, Payne collected 9 disposals, took 5 marks and spent 80% of the game on the ground.[14]
