Thank you, yes that is expected. Learning the role and team structures and chemistry of his new team mates 👍🏽 Thanks mate

Has anyone got some key take away from seeing Matt Hill in the Match sim and scaled down scratchie they played yesterday? Does he add pressure in the back six and make them pay when he uses his pace out of contests??

Buddy Franklin is Matts uncle on the Kickett side.

Buddy Franklin is off the same lineage with his Garlett and Kickett families on Buddys mothers side so I'd say possibly the highest of pedigree.. only my inside perspective though.. Many more Noongar AFL past players carry the same links and have the rich pedigree also.

He’s eligible to Play a senior game, he doesn’t need to wait for LTI or a Retiree.. If Matt had to go into Senior List he would have to wait for LTI or Retiree.

This is Matt aged 15 against the A Grade Men’s team.

This is Matt aged 15 playing seniors

Yes, fear Cyril had instilled into the elite opponents and forced them to making errors or having a poor disposal is the same fear Matt will instill when he runs at players when he gets his chance…

Thanks you for preparing me and also respecting my self moderating.. I won’t be scared away, I like to hear the excitement my nephew brings it’s a good reward my nephew can give to footy fans because of his awesome talents

Thank you and you’re welcome

I’ll support positive discussions for Matt anytime and am happy to stick around but I’ll most likely not answer anything personal I’ll only share his Sporting Traits and what he possesses as an Athlete.. I feel it’s good to share a CV of a kid for people who are genuinely interested in his prospects

Thank you. I’ll hold back on some insights due to privacy and respect but I just like to give a inside take on an exciting kid in an exciting time to watch Hawks and the AFL…

He could’ve been the next Greg Inglis possibly but his road and the path to get there had a few positions tied up at FB or the Wings with Paps and Oates and such.. His size was one but he’s not limited to just NRL he had the same opportunity to grow in the Footy hence his move over

Society learns over time how to make things better as a ever changing culture and Hawks have the right people there now for Indigenous kids and it’s a learning curve for everyone to take on board and respecting boundaries for our kids and also teaching non indigenous kids that respecting...

Bellamy and all the development staff loved him and were sad he left but the kid had it in his heart to go once Hawks put some months into him

Oh yeah.. Hawks came at him hard and Storm couldn’t match that intensity that Hawks brought to convince him to cross codes.

What do mean the Knock on Him in the NRL?

Matt’s genuinely a 50/50 Rugby/Aussie Rules kid growing up, he could be the first Junior NRL talent to go to the AFL.

Natural midfielder as a kid, I see him start off the flanks either back or forward half and doing lots of 2 ways runs to chase down tackle pressure and explode away from congestion to attack.. He’ll end up being a wingman when his tanks good for it. Everything you mentioned is accurate. I have...

He’s legit 187cm. I was trying to post a pic of him next to a player you all know Cyril Rioli but the thread won’t let me paste it. Matt towers over Cyril, only as a reference to height against someone you know… I hope Matt does half the stuff Cyril done though but anything’s possible

You’re welcome mate. Happy to get on here when I can.. I’m as excited as you supporters are with the prospects.. I’ve seen him grow from a kid and there’s no questioning his natural abilities it’s just a case of him learning his role and understanding how to play the AFL and Hawks brand of footy...

Yes, you’re right the transition from his elite junior NRL fitness level coupled in with his natural running ability he will eventually reach the heights of being a gut running player one day.
