Mitch McGovern
Mitch McGovern has played 80 games for the Blues since arriving at the Club from the Crows at the end of 2018.
Having played the majority of his career as a forward (kicking 109 career goals), McGovern made the switch to the backline following the 2021 season, filling a gap alongside teammate Jacob Weitering.
McGovern slotted seamlessly into the back half, with his intercept marking and aerial work big assets of his game.
After struggling with injury, the 30-year-old has been able to put together strong back-to-back seasons, including a full pre-season in 2025.
With the addition of Addison in September, McGovern is now a father of three, with daughter Margot and son Hamish regular fixtures at the IKON Park, along with wife Kirsten.
