It was a stop-start 2020 season for the young forward who didn’t break into the senior line-up until round nine.

Played five games on the trot, but broke his collarbone in the round 13 loss to the Western Bulldogs and missed the next four games.

Recovered in time for the round 18 clash with Essendon, but was named an emergency.

In his third season at the top level, Sparrow will be looking for more senior football in 2021.
