Former Tiger and Giant who proved to be a handy addition to the Bombers' forward line in his first season in the red and black, booting nine goals from 12 games. Tough, aggressive and courageous, the childhood Essendon supporter is never one to shirk a contest.

An AFL and VFL premiership winner with Richmond and with 48 senior games under his belt, Townsend’s experience as a big-game player is sure to prove valuable in 2020.
