Stats
Bio
Recruited from South Bendigo in the strong Bendigo Football League, Bruce Andrew was a tall but lightly built utility who earned a brief trial with St Kilda during the 1958 VFL season. He made his senior debut in a satisfying home victory over Fitzroy at the Junction Oval in Round 8, enjoying a winning start to his league career. Andrew held his spot in the side for four consecutive matches, booting his solitary career goal during that month-long stint, but he struggled to make a lasting impact during subsequent losses to heavyweights like Collingwood and Footscray. Unable to consolidate a position in the starting lineup, he was omitted after Round 11 and did not add to his game tally, departing the VFL as one of many country recruits who had a short-lived taste of senior football.
