The Bombers have landed the signature of former Seymour ball-magnet Paul Scanlon.
Scanlon has built up an impressive country football CV that has included two Goulburn Valley Football League premierships with Seymour, as well as representing Victoria Country at the Australian Country Football Championships.
The 30-year-old was also the vice-captain of the Victoria Country team that played the Victorian Amateurs in their bi-annual clash at Ballarat in 2007.

THE Metricon Bendigo Bombers’ tough finish to the VFL season continues at the Queen Elizabeth Oval today when they host the Werribee Tigers in round 19.
Having kicked just a combined three goals in their past two games, which have been losses by 119 and 155 points, the Bombers must today confront a Werribee side that is fighting for a spot in the top four and the coveted double chance.
Going into today’s game, Werribee sits fifth, just percentage behind the Casey Scorpions with two rounds remaining.
With the growing injury toll at Essendon now at an extreme, only two AFL-listed players will line up for Bendigo today.

In what was one of the most inexperienced - if not the most inexperienced - side the Bombers have fielded in their six years, Mark Arnott, Jonathon Gawthrop, Darren Granger, David Martin and Chris Mathieson made their senior debuts.
They were among 18 Bendigo-listed players.
