• News & Video

A tagging defender, he played some good footy on small forwards last year with Stephen Milne and Eddie Betts among those he kept quiet. He was used wisely by the Hawthorn coaching staff, who kept him away from the marking forwards who have been his nemesis in past seasons. A respected player - who has been at the club since he was taken in the 2004 draft - he captained the Hawks for the round 24 clash with Gold Coast when many stars were rested. 


Draft history: 2004 NAB AFL Draft 2nd round selection (Hawthorn) No. 21 overall.
