Player Watch Hawthorn NGA 2021 and beyond

Who are NGA's for 2025 onwards?

I guess once we know they are not going to be good, they will get announced.

It's equalisation. Those in need will get good NGAs. Those doing well will conveniently have no NGAs

Anyone know anything about Oliver Greeves and whether or not he’s in our NGA for 2025?

Apparently a very highly rated 191cm midfielder with elite skills and a basketball background who plays for Eastern Ranges. Has impressed the last couple years as an underage player.

Reason I ask is I saw an IG post hyping him up and stating he’d be an AFL academy and first round lock for 2025. Lost the post to an automatic feed refresh when I jumped on Google to look him up.

Couldn’t find anything explicitly linking him to our NGA (or any academy) but as we know it’s near impossible to find that info for even current year players.

I did come across that he is from Vermont Junior FC which is Connor Downie’s junior club and obviously he was in our NGA. So if he is NGA eligible, good chance it’s with us.

Connor Downie was in academy because his mum was a chinese immigrant. Not because of his junior club. Remember NGA is not based on an area like northern academies, you need to be meet the ethnic background requirements too.

Yeah, I know that. I didn't know if Greeves had an eligible background though as I'd never heard of him before and that type of info isn't always readily available. Assuming the IG was accurate and he did meet the NGA criteria then the question was essentially is he is in our NGA zone. Being from the same junior club as a previous Hawthorn NGA player would suggest it was likely.
