Universal Love Welcome to Hawthorn: Jarman Impey extends to 2026!

[Simon Crawshay]

His contested marking is also a huge feature of his game. Constantly goes back with the flight. You'd love to play on the same team as him

For a guy who's only 178cm he's very, very good in the air.

 

[Cyril says]

What a great get he’s been for us - a wonderful player and leader.

 

[flinchfree]

Has turned his body into a plus where for a number of years he was fighting it.
Not many go harder, not many are braver with ball in hand.
He is literally unleashed.
What a sight.

 

[Fists of Love]

Those goals on the run from 50 are becoming a trademark

 

[Dewyyyyy]

Everyone loves his runs, his courageous acts in the air, his general flair. But his one on one work and defensive stuff has been awesome, has been given roles most weeks and does it whilst being able to exploit them the other way. Makes it easier on Amon sometimes aswell, and means Hardwick can focus on his role too knowing Jarman is doing his.

Impey is one of the original D50 bounce brothers. When he went to half back he had a breakout period before the knee, he was part of the group that set the tone for our the attacking side that we've become. It looked like he might have lost a lot of agility after his knee injury. But to his eternal credit, he worked himself back to where he'd left off. You just except him to tear off his man and launch us down the park now; as you expect him to mark overhead with contact coming from all points of the compass. He's tough, physically imposing despite his side, and loves the club like we all do.

He's having a cracking year & yes I thought he couldn't recapture his exceptional form pre his knee injury. Buy here he is doing some great work & contributing in such a complimentary way to the team.

How good has this guys last 2 months of football been. Post knee injury it's been easy for some to forget how much of a sky walker he is with the way he plays the game but he seems to have found that part of his game again. It's so awesome to see him sky for marks again because it makes him seem bigger than he actually is.

Kudos to you Jars you've been absolutely phenomenal this season

 

[SSSSSS]

He's in AA form.

 

[Threadkilla]

Best game I’ve seen him play. Has been good all year and has improved the longer the season has gone.

 

[TylerDurden]

He's in career best. AA form.

 

[flinchfree]

He's in career best. AA form.

18 months ago I didn't believe he could find his way back. I questioned his professionalism and want to to get his body right to even give himself the chance.
I've never been more wrong.
This last half season I don't know I've seen a better patch of intercept marking and hard running off the half back flank by a Hawthorn HBFer. Harder, braver, more electric, creating opportunity for his team over and over again.
Absolutely sublime.

 

[Nick the Pig]

This guy just embodies the style Mitchell has us play. Hard as a cat's head. Has pace to burn. Can attack and defend. Seriously good overhead. When he takes off and cuts through the middle of the ground it's pure excitement.

Takes a good person to admit their wrongs publicly - heart and soul post for a heart and soul player.

 

[SpanishBrowne]

I think we're hitting "peak Impey".. and it is glorious to watch.

 

[MrPremiership]

If he wore a Geelong jumper he'd be AA

 

[Kanga Commando]

If he wore a Geelong jumper he'd be AA

Exactly

He's in blistering form and deserves AA.

At least the panel has Kane on it and he's been our biggest fan boy this year. Still, with Dillon chair, I dare say they will stuff it with Bris, GWS & Swines players.

 

[Atch]

What an absolute warrior.
