Bio
Recruited from North Adelaide, Brenton Phillips was a classy wingman who initially moved to Victoria to join Essendon in 1986. Unable to break into the Bombers' formidable premiership-era midfield on a permanent basis, he headed north to become a foundation player for the Brisbane Bears in 1987. Phillips became a reliable contributor for the fledgling club, using his smooth skills and running capacity to service the forward line across five difficult seasons in Queensland. While he was a solid performer at the highest level, his finest individual football was played upon his return to South Australia, where he won the 1993 Magarey Medal and later coached Sturt to a drought-breaking premiership.
