AFL career
Ellis-Yolmen did not play an AFL match in his first two seasons, establishing himself in the senior side of Woodville-West Torrens in the SANFL. Despite having not yet played an AFL game, he was chosen in the Australian squad in the 2013 Indigenous International Rules series against Ireland. Whilst in Ireland, Ellis-Yolmen was the subject of controversy when he posted a photo of himself holding a rifle.
Ellis-Yolmen finally made his AFL debut in Round 12, 2014 against Fremantle, playing as the substitute and gathering only five disposals. He was dropped to the SANFL the following week and dislocated his finger against Central District, hindering his prospects of a recall. He did not play another AFL game in 2014, but impressed playing in the midfield in Adelaide's new reserves team, finishing fourth in the best and fairest and having the most disposals, clearances and tackles for the team.
Ellis-Yolmen started 2015 in Adelaide's best lineup, showing excellent form in averaging 20 disposals in the first five rounds. Afterwards his form tapered off and he was dropped after round 15.
Personal life
Ellis-Yolmen's father is from Papua New Guinea, and his mother is an Indigenous Australian from Koonibba on the west coast of South Australia.
