Welcome to Hawthorn, Flynn Perez, SSP 2026

[Judd2Sewell]

Read where he is a disability care worker away from footy ,that speaks volumes for the character of the guy you have to be a special citizen with a lot of patience to do that type of work.

Quality individual. Really hope he makes the most of the opportunity.

Bit of Jarrod Kayler-Thomson about this. Wasn't JKT a teacher?

 

[Satchel]

as a Sturt supporter I am proud of our involvement in getting him back to his best

 

[CHUBBSS]

He looks ready

Mitchell wants flexibility, his ability to defend and kick truely is what will get him in the team

 

[MrPremiership]

Good on you lad

 

[Randy Campbell]

Is he wearing the zero?

 

[Ned Ryerson]

Is he wearing the zero?View attachment 2542451

Probably just the AFL not knowing what number he is yet - I don’t think players can wear 0. Wish they could - love 0 and 00 in American sports.

 

[MazHawk]

They're incompetents. He's 39 and that was up on our website since the day after we drafted him.

But I'm probably asking too much for journos to do some actual research. Idiots.

 

[Tall Tales and True]

Same number he wore at North??

Bit of Jarrod Kayler-Thomson about this. Wasn't JKT a teacher?

Yes, he was. Is now a school Principal.

Congrats to Perez - achieved his lifelong dream of making it onto an AFL list!

good luck young man.
He just looks and moves like a good player.
Will be a weapon if he can bring his best.

Said he and his old man would get the train down to watch the Easter Monday games.....was he a Hawk supporter as a kid? or a Cat?

Besties with Ginni, so you have to assume he's a mad Hawks fan as well.

[TylerDurden]

Good luck lad!

 

[The Kipster]

Fly high Flynnstar.

 

[arupist]

He's been through a lot to get here. The kid's got FlynnStones.

 

[MazHawk]

Couldn't be happier. More power to you Flynn.

 

[CHUBBSS]

Statement first game for the hawks, that’s a huge nod. Looks in ripping nick

 

[SSSSSS]

Get this bloke a properly sized jumper. He'll be in it at least a few more times this season.

Thought he had a good game and cracked in hard when needed to.
