Bundoora isn’t resting on a Northern Football League division 1 grand final appearance, with the Bulls adding three new pieces to the puzzle.
The Bulls have looked to strengthen their squad, with a couple of familiar faces coming on board.
Former Coburg captain Peter McEvoy joins the Bulls having retired from the Victorian Football League.
McEvoy had previously committed to the club in 2019 as his local club, but didn’t play a match.
He played 90 games at VFL level and was named captain of the VFL team of the year in 2021.
Three-time premiership player Joey Palazzolo returns to the Bulls having spent this year with East Keilor in the Essendon District Football League.
He played 17 games in the premier division, named in the best three times as the Cougars finished fifth.
Before that he was named in the squad for the Bulls team of the decade between 2010-19 and was one of their best in the 2017 premiership.
Former Hurstbridge captain Lachlan East has also made the move across to Yulong Reserve.
A three-time best and fairest winner at Hurstbridge, East is also a premiership player, two time team of the year representative and has also represented the league at interleague.
The Bulls said, “Lachlan’s leadership qualities and his strength of character will compliment our strong culture”.
While the Bulls have announced three key players, Brenton Keating is leaving the club having signed with Diamond Creek.
Diamond Creek announced on its Facebook that the Diamond Creek local would be joining them,
Keating, who has been a member of the Bulls leadership group for a number of years, has played more than 200 senior games in the NFL and won a senior premiership with the Bulls in 2017 and a reserves premiership this year.
