Andrew McGrath
Had a consistent 2024, racking up a career-high 525 disposals, but as vice-captain and the 2016 No. 1 pick, the Bombers still probably need to get more out of him. There is an argument he is yet to fulfill his enormous potential. Needs to cut some of those costly turnovers out of his game. After 157 games and contracted until 2030, he can still go to the next level.
