Harris Michael Johnston Andrews (born 11 December 1996) is an Australian rules footballer and the captain of the Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League (AFL).[1]
Early life
Andrews was born in Fitzroy in Melbourne in 1996. He moved to Brisbane’s northern suburbs with his family in 2000 at the age of 4. There he participated in the Auskick program at Aspley[2] and began playing junior football for the Aspley Football Club at five years of age.[3] He attended Aspley State Primary School followed by Padua College for his senior schooling[4] and was recruited to the Brisbane Lions Academy as a 17 year old.[5] In 2013, Andrews was the leading goal kicker in the NEAFL under 18 competition, with 80 goals in 17 games.[6] In 2014, Andrews played as a key position defender while representing Queensland in the TAC Cup and the 2014 AFL Under 18 Championships. The Brisbane Lions selected him with the 61st pick at the 2014 AFL draft.
AFL career
Andrews played his first game in round 3 of the 2015 season against Richmond, scoring a debut goal from more than 50 metres.[7] He was nominated for NAB Rising Star Nominee in Round 18. He was included in the AFL 22 under 22 Team 2017/2018 and named Captain in 2019. Andrews was voted Most Professional Player at Brisbane four years in a row, from 2017 through to 2020.[8] In May 2018, Andrews was appointed vice-captain of the Lions.
In round 10, 2018 he set a league record for the most one percenters in a single match, having recorded 26 in a loss to Sydney at The Gabba.[9] In 2019 and 2020, Andrews received All-Australian honours in back-to-back years.[10]
In 2023, Andrews was appointed co-captain of the Brisbane Lions alongside Lachie Neale. Andrews played in the Grand Final defeat to Collingwood in his first season as captain. Andrews overcame his co-captain, who had won the Brownlow Medal for the season, to win his first Merrett–Murray Medal.[11]
During 2024, Andrews extended his contract with the Lions until at least the end of 2029.[8] As co-captain, he was a part of Brisbane's 2024 premiership winning team.[12] As the premiership captain, Andrews was presented with the inaugural Ron Barassi Medal alongside co-captain Lachie Neale.[13]
