Bio
Recruited from Heidelberg in the Diamond Valley, Mark Withers began his VFL career with Melbourne, where he operated as a rover and forward pocket but struggled to secure a permanent position in the senior lineup over three seasons. Seeking greater opportunity, he ventured north to join the Brisbane Bears for their inaugural campaign in 1987, a move that defined his career. Withers immediately became a central figure in the Bears' midfield, utilizing his industrious work rate and goal-kicking ability to etch his name into history as the winner of the club's first-ever Best and Fairest award. While the Bears faced significant on-field challenges during their formative years, Withers remained a consistent contributor until his departure in 1991, leaving a lasting legacy as a foundational champion for the expansion side.
