GUESTS

Andrew McGrath

Entering his fourth season off the back of an impressive 2019, McGrath is poised to take his game to the next level with more midfield time in 2020.

The 21-year-old attended the second-most centre bounces for the Bombers during their unbeaten 2020 Marsh Community Series, starring in the same role in round one with 23 disposals (11 contested) and a game-high eight tackles before the season was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

In his return to the club last week, McGrath looked like he hadn't missed a beat during the lockdown and will join the show to talk about his and the team's preparation for round two, his goals for 2020 and what he's been up to away from footy.
