Josh Goater

Goater had his 2024 season railroaded by an achilles injury in the early stages of the year. It was a shame because in 2023, the defender was starting to show promising signs, averaging 14 touches, five marks and four intercepts a game. Will be interesting to see if he can continue that momentum after last year’s major disruption.
