“Loved” helping Sydney Swans win

Bradtke, who had game time in the second half of the game, kicked one goal, ending a late Roos surge, and had seven disposals and five handballs.

“It was great to be around those blokes playing high-level footy,” Bradtke told The Free Press.

“I was pretty stoked to kick a goal, but really the best part was being in the environment. It’s definitely a goal of mine to be playing at top level.”

The 196cm forward has had a great season with Corowa Rutherglen and will now focus assisting the team with a strong finish, despite not making finals.
