Steele Sidebottom

Many expected 2024 to be the final year of the 331-gamer’s career but it ended up proving anything but that. The veteran played 22 games, starting on a wing and off half-back before turning into the midfield lockdown option. His efforts led to a remarkable fifth place finish in the Copeland Trophy, which ultimately earned him another deal for 2025. Now 34, but still has the skills and footy smarts that have made him an elite player for more than a decade. A club legend.
