Biography
 
After signing a one-year contract extension at the end of the 2012/13 season, former Sunderland and Leeds striker Michael Bridges will once again be a key member of the Jets squad in 2013/14. Bridges played in the England Under-18’s alongside household names Emile Heskey, Rio Ferdinand, Frank Lampard and Michael Owen. The 33-year old striker then went on to make more than 200 appearances in the Premier League during spells with the Black Cats, Leeds and Newcastle (on loan). Bridges moved to the Newcastle Jets in 2009 and scored six goals in 15 appearances. Bridges’ experience playing at the top level makes him a valuable mentor to the Club’s younger players.
