The Adelaide Football Club is saddened to learn of the passing of former player Joshua Mail.

Mail, who played four AFL games for the Crows in 1994, died on Monday after a long battle with cancer. He was 50.

Mail was drafted at the 1993 pre-season draft from North Adelaide, where he made his SANFL debut as a 16-year-old in 1991.

He made his AFL debut for Adelaide against Fitzroy in 1994, wearing the No 8 guernsey. 

Mail played the last of his 79 SANFL games for North in 2001.
